why, after so long, did i start back again?

Because we remember what helped get us through a difficult time. I've heard of people who are much older turning back to self-injury, even if only for a short while, when something horrible happens like a loved one dying or even something like going through a divorce. 

I know even though I don't think of myself as an active self-injurer I still self-injured when my sister was hospitalized because I felt helpless and afraid for her and I knew self-injury would help me through that especially difficult day (my birthday). I haven't really considered it again as a serious answer for the tough times I'm going through but at the time I felt it was the only answer.
