I haven't self harmed for maybe 3 months now, but I am feeling the desperation and the need to do it again today. How do I stop myself?

Write a poem, write a song, play an instrument, distract yourself somehow, go hang out with friends.

Dibley, you should be proud that you haven't self harmed in three months. I applaud you! Let's continue that pattern. When you feel the urge, go distract yourself with something you love... whether it's music, a movie, or going to your favorite store. How about you pick up the phone and dial a best friend?

Think about how good it makes you feel to be able to say "I haven't self harmed for maybe 3 months" Now lets make it 4 months then 5. The higher the number gets the bigger your smile can be when you say it.
