Hi,
I know what you are going through, so you are not alone.

This happens with me too, I can go a while without cutting, but I end up thinking about it all of the time and at some point, I give in to the want to cut.
I know what helps me with getting away from the thought of cutting is always trying to keep myself busy with either schoolwork, activities or distractions.
If you haven't yet, you should check out the list of self harm alternatives.
There are a lot of choices on there and they can help when you want to cut with getting your mind off of the urge.
I really hope this helps and if you ever need anything, you can PM me and I will be very glad to help as best as I can.

"i don't care your intentions. I just want you to know my self-hatred never took me where I wanted to go. At the end of the day...I can pick at the pain but I can't cut it away."
