you can do it. try a cold shower, or cold bath instead. try snapping a rubber band on your wrist. trying doing something else you enjoy: reading, watching a movie, talking a walk outside. get away from the bathroom.... the key is to break that cycle of irrational thinking by distraction

Try taking out the urge by excising, that is still a relief but causes pain but doesn't harm in the bad way. G
