As an adult I have flash backs or memories of being physically abused as a child. These memories distort how I think about my life today and my future. How do I not let these horrible memories control my life and re-traumatize me?

Pilatus, please remind me...are you in therapy at all? If not, I would highly suggest it.

Talking them out, in your own time, and working them thru with as much understanding as you can gain can really be helpful.

Flashbacks of past abuses can be hell on earth. Please know that you're not alone and are cared for.
