Squeezing ice can help get the pain, or sticking your hand/arm in ice water. You have to really want to quit though. You probably won't find a way to get the same instant gratification, and will need to try and focus a lot on why you don't want to cut.

You need to get a therapist so that you can work on the causes for your feeling so bad.

I agree with both above me! Like Sannah said, a therapist can help a lot, if you're not already seeing one, to work out why you SI and help you through those feelings.As ickydog said, ice can help alleviate some urges, snapping a rubber band on your arm might help too. What helps me is using red food die and poor it out in the sink or down my arm, just seeing something like blood calms my nerves.
I wish you the best

It is okay to be angry at someone.
