Suggest Treatment For Extreme Behaviour Due To Bipolar

hi, i suffer from bipolar and am currently feeling very low with violent outbursts and self harming. I got diazepam from my doctor but they are not keeping me calm or helping with my anxiety. I have got a meeting with my psychiatrist on thursday, but have just cut my arm again and dont know what to do. It is not deep and does not require treatment, but I am scared of myself
