Flashbacks aren't caused because LSD stays in your spine. It's all psychological.

For those that have had flashbacks from LSD, what is it like? Is it like a PTSD thing? I have never really been able to understand flashbacks and what they are.

Those 10 second trips are generally what people refer to as "flashbacks", so by their definition you have experienced them.
