Something that I do:

I have flashbacks a lot. A lot. Whenever I go to my counseling session, I always take a stuffed animal from my collection with me. One of the things my therapist has me do is to hold onto the stuffed animal as tight as I need to and just run my hand through the fur.

Something else that might help is that if you have a close friend who knows you have trouble with flashbacks, you might want to let them know so they can kind of "call you back" to reality.
