Your notes here and pm let me know that you have the same kind of experiences that I do. The flash backs are continuous. I mean like minute by minute. I know they are in the past, but they seem to want to control my present

Sure, I use some self-hypno to remind myself that this is all ptsd. I have a way to relax, to remind myself that this is not th present.

and it works to some extent. i relax. the moment passes. And then here it is again.

I even have a recurring moment from when i was 4 or 5 yrs old, and i'm sure it is csa. And it competes with and intertwines with the combat ptsd. I really think I am going crazy.
