I have something sort of like that, just like a list my therapist and I made. It has things like breathing exercises, stretches, distractions (like music, movies, writing, taking a hot bath) etc. She made me create a bag where I fill it with ideas and when I get stressed/angry/upset/feel like self harming I pull one of the cards/papers and do what is on it, it seems to have helped.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
