Flash backs

I was diagnosed with JME (juvenile myoclonic epilepsy) when I was 14 years old. I used to drink a excessively, which would lead to seizures. Recently, I quit drinking and I have been seizure free =). I now have 42 days clean, however, I am experiencing flashbacks of my seizures. =( It's wierd, like in the middle of nowhere, I can be talking to people, or just in the middle of class and BAM, I'll have a flashback... Can anyone relate to this?
