how do you 'get over' a hard past

i won't go into too much detail on this post but in my life i've suffered abuse, bullying, physical attacks where i was seriously hurt in full view of the public....dealing with mental problems as well....and there's times i have flashbacks or upsetting memories which cause me distress....i'm now 47 years old.

how do i come to terms with my past, let go and move on?

First of all, I'd recommend trauma informed therapy. Meanwhile, read The Body Keeps Score. I've learned a lot from this book and its valuable self help strategies.
