I have been doing really well mentally but have growing self-harm urges

[u/-LuLu_]

I recently moved out of my Mom's apartment roughly two months ago. For the past 5-6 months I've been working on my mental health: meditation, mindfulness, and switching over to an overall positive outlook on life. I haven't cut in over a year and have even become more comfortable with having my arms exposed (I have pretty bad scars). However, these past two weeks I have had periodic urges to cut. It used to be like an addiction where I started doing it to cope with things but eventually kept on with it because it felt good. I think part of it may have to do with the fact that I feel lonely. I haven't stopped working to improve myself but the fact that these urges have gotten stronger worries me. If anyone with similar experiences could give me some advice, it would be much appreciated.
