I've been dealing with wanting to burn myself through distraction. Sometimes the distraction is just getting in bed and pulling the covers over my head.
I'm feeling calmer after a really intense week and now I'm really glad I didn't burn.

Maybe think about how you'll feel if you don't do it, think of a reward to give yourself for not doing it?

I don't drink really, luckily I just don't like alcohol or getting 'high' but I did consider having a drink or two when the desire to burn got more intense. I'm glad I didn't do that either because no matter how much I drink I seem to get a hangover and feel physically awful afterwards which doesn't help the mental part.

Hang in there
The desire WILL pass.
