Ranting helps a little...I usually try to find people feeling similar about certain things, and read/listen to what others try to reassure them with. Otherwise, fetal position and rocking until I am out of it. I used to be more violent against myself, but as part of the "one foot in front of the other" thing, I have mostly gotten out of the full-out self destructive part of my life. SSRI's would not be the best for me (as I have trouble with Serotonin in the first place - it would likely further mess it up).
Karate helped (Alternatives: Yoga, high-energy dance, Juijitsu, etc.), as did brushing (Wilbarger Brushing helped with stress, but I have to remember to do it...which is hard with stress)
