What are these "flashbacks" like? I'm not asking you to go into content, but just what is the experience like?

the flashbacks are like just quick images, sometimes a split second like a snapshot, and other times lasting a few seconds like i'm seeing something happen. i've managed to put 2 or 3 of these together (from a little one) and figure out what it is she's showing me. it
seems as though it is me that things are happening to, but it is not things that happened to me. and it feels more like 'let me show you what happened to me' ... if that makes sense.
i've also heard them talk. usually just a phrase or a simple description of something. when that happens, i don't see anything, just hear. like recalling a conversation with someone or something someone said to you but without visual memory.
