I have had these too, but they have largely subsided. Could they be linked with obsessional thoughts or worries, I wonder.
Something I found helpful was to actively put myself in a position of being in control whilst within the visions. i.e. if I imagined something bad happening to me, I could get up and fight, or get to safety. It's like, not being passive whilst it's going on, I guess.
Another helpful option could be to, as soon as the visions begin, get up and do something else. Make a cup of tea, wash the dishes, do a puzzle or phone a friend. I find that biting down on a piece of citrus fruit is quite grounding.
