    hi Ro, you need to try to discover what is making you think about the past ie certain triggers. try to write down what you think of every time this happens and see if you spot any pattern. Find out what this is and ask how you can stop this happening by people who know. i have ptsd my trigger is the fact that my brain keeps replaying over and over what happened to me and i needed to let go of the guilt that i felt for what happened. it wasn't my fault and it took time to realise this. it's like unraveling string, you have to do this bit by bit. i wish you luck, it's hard but doable.
