Help! I need a new coping skill.

I self harmed for two years. I began starting a new coping skill that has been really effective; eating. Although, I'm worried because I had a slight eating disorder before, eating might draw me back in it agaian.

A friend of mine used to keep a rubber band around her wrist like a bracelet, and slap her wrist with it whenever she had the urge to self harm. Maybe try that?

I heard that can really cause damage because if you pop it too hard, it can break a vein, or something. Also, I don't want to start a new addiction. Thank you for your advice, though. I'll research that and see if it's true.
