"I hate Flashbacks from things I don't want to remember".....

Flashbacks are bad, they are a sign that you are worrying more than you should be. It's a reminder that there are so many things in your life to consider and pay attention to. And these thoughts leave an imprint in your mind and haunt you if you let them because they are repetitive and come up, again and again, every time you think about these bad events.

It had absolutely nothing to do with how things turned out for me or how hard I tried to get over the situation, but rather how I reacted after the fact when this whole ordeal was already long past.

Getting these kinds of thoughts out of my mind has been a challenge because when I can get them out of the way, I'm able to separate myself from these negative thoughts so they don't follow me like ghosts haunting my daily activities.

Keeping these negative thoughts in mind is not only unhealthy, but also difficult, so when you feel down about an event, try these things to clear them.
