I am sorry your experiencing flashbacks from things that happened in your past.
I do know that it is very upsetting and confusing when it happens, I was very confused by it as well.

My therapist told me that it is a form of PTSD. PTSD can lie dormant for many years and seem to come from no where. Somehow, for some reason it can be triggered to come out and it can be as simple as being around your own child that is at the age you were at when things happened to you.

In these flashbacks is information, sounds smells memories and emotions that somehow you could not address so they were just pushed aside in your brain, laying in wait in a way. So what you have to begin doing is think about the information you are seeing in the flashbacks and try to write the information down. As troubling as it may seem, try not to let yourself get upset by them. What your going to do now, with the help of a therapist is finally address something you didn't have the ability to address in your past. You are not being attacked but you can sometimes feel the emotions that revolve around the flashbacks. Keep in mind that it is not something you are experiencing now and you will learn how to deal with them and address the experience that for some reason you surpressed. It will eventually get better the more you address it.

You can come here any time for support, as others have experienced these disturbing flashbacks as well. Make sure you bring it up in therapy so you can begin working them out.
