Hi sj,
Sorry to hear that this is happening. I know about flashbacks.
I've never been able to stop them, but they can lessen considerably when the illness lessens. Also I was able to learn a kind of ignoring technique, which helped me. One of my strategies was to go into the memories and try to face up to the pain, then when the flashbacks came again I said to myself 'I know what this is, there's nothing new here'.
The memories always come as if there is something new, but there isn't. It's just the same old pain.
Peaceful thoughts, M
