To have a flashback involves revisiting the scene of an actual traumatic event. You have traveled through time and reexperience the event as if it is happening all over again. You may feel what you did during the event. That is not just a thought or a memory. No, it’s being there all over again. How scary! The hope is to find support that you lacked back at the time of the actual event.
