Ahhhh, I misunderstood. When you said
"I have PTSD and I do have flashbacks and nightmares but have learned to cope with these. "
it sounded a lot what I feel about my OCD. If my OCD were my only remaining problem I'd probably feel able to continue to put my CBT skills into practice on my own and only return to therapy for tuneups. But if you don't feel that you have learned to cope adequately with the flashbacks and nightmares, I think I'd try to continue on despite the discomfort of starting over. That will pass.
