I have ptsd and my flashbacks are becoming more and more frequent can anybody help?

Question

Extremely frequent. I almost crashed my bike today =[

Nothing has come up about my past.

Is this normal?

Is there a reason behind this?

Thanks xoxoxoxo

Answer 1

Anything can bring a flashback and flare up PTSD. It can be a smell, a sound, a familiar face. I had it real bad and I get flare ups all the time. PTSD never goes away, the only thing we can do is learn to live with it and try to overcome it when it hits.

One option if your not "too manly", is go talk to someone about it. A friend, family member, or behavioral health person

Answer 2

What do you mean nothing has come up about your past?  It doesn't take much to trigger a flashback.  I have had shaking in the hands, twitches and ticks. Realized what was going on and was choking someone without knowing it.  There doesn't seem to be much that helps really.
