I think it's completely understandable to resort to an old coping mechanism, even if you don't feel you are actually depressed at the moment. Was there any trigger for starting to self-harm again?
You don't need to feel guilty. Everyone's experience of the world is different and everyone is affected differently by things. Just because some people have had a worse life than you doesn't mean that you're not allowed to find some things difficult too.
Have you spoken to your therapist and boyfriend about the fact that you've slipped up? I hope they have/will reassure you that you haven't let them down.
