A flashbacks card saying “I’m experiencing flashbacks to something traumatic. It feels like I’m re-living it. It can make me: Jumpy, hypervigilant, tearful, vulnerable, angry, scared, other (space to write your own text)

Please don’t ask for details as that can make it worse. Please be patient while I get through it. See the back of this card for things which help.”

The back of this card has a blank space, so you can write additional information if you wish. This card can be written on with ballpoint pen, fountain pen, and pencil. Be aware that these cannot be erased after writing.

We sell these cards 'pick and mix' style - choose the cards you want. You will receive a plain metal split ring with your cards. This card is compatible with all other Keyring Cards and keyring card accessories on this site.

Most are available with striped borders or plain borders. (The plain cards are colour coded - pale green for ‘I’m Ok’, pale blue for ‘information’, pale orange for ‘I need you to change your behaviour' or 'I'm not OK', and pale purple for ‘I have a specific condition’.)

Photos which include other cards are only to illustrate what a final pack may look like.

Colours may vary slightly from colours shown on screen.

The synthetic cards are effectively made of plastic – they are waterproof and durable without needing lamination.

How to look after your synthetic cards

You can write on the card with ballpoint, fountain pen or pencil. But due to the coating, once written on, the writing cannot be erased.

DO NOT use solvent based marker pens - these can dissolve the protective coating.

They can be fully immersed in water, but when soaked the protective coating becomes easily damaged - so do not scratch them when wet. Once dry, their scratch-resistance will return.

Cleaning:

Use a common soft kitchen detergent or hand soap diluted with water. Products with low alcohol content (< 40%) can be used to disinfect the cards.

Gently wipe the surface with a soft cloth immersed with the mixture of soft detergent and water.

DO NOT use pure concentrated soap - always dilute!

DO NOT use of microfiber cloths because these type of cloths might polish the surface and/or damage the printed image.

DO NOT use all-purpose cleaning products that contain abrasive particles (like e.g. alum) as these products can damage the
printed image.

Do NOT use of disinfectant products with high alcohol content (e.g. 60% isopropanol or 60% ethanol or a mixture of both) as
these products can damage the printed image.
