Sometimes I know a memory is beginning to surface because I start seeing flashes of color then I start to panic then I say no stop and I am able to stop the memory. I dont want to stop it though but I panic. Anyone else's memories come in flashes of color?

Maybe it means you are creative/ artist? I don't have color memories but can relate to not being able to focus on anything else when I have flashbacks. Do you have a strategy other than trying to stop it; like practice self-soothing by saying, "I am in the safe place now" or assure yourself, "I am strong and am able to come out of these memories"? Sometimes I am able to wake myself from bad dreams and nightmares by repeating positive words to myself.
Thanks for this!
