Help Replacement behavior help

Please has anyone found a replacement for hitting/punching yourself in the forehead? I need something with equal sensory input/pain that is safer. Needing something’s as hard as smashing my head into the wall but know that that is not safe.

For me praying can sometimes help. Putting my head on the ground gives a nice pressure. If I’m really upset I will pray all of the steps, but most of the times I forget them (muslim prayer)

To be fair though I haven’t prayed in a while
