I am sorry you are having these flashbacks, yes, they are intrusive and inconvenient.
However, while you can't stop them from happening, you can wait them out, acknowledge them and remind yourself that yes that happened but is not happening now. The more you do this the weaker they will get until eventually all they really become is a memory that instead of creating an emotional challenge will instead have very little impact on
you.
Thanks for this!
