CountDown timer not working on the background state of App

Mine is also a workout app. I have an issue where it says

_AssertionError ('package:flutter/src/animation/animation_controller.dart': Failed assertion: line 493 pos 7: '_ticker != null': AnimationController.reverse() called after AnimationController.dispose()
AnimationController methods should not be used after calling dispose.)

when I try to display this widget after it was hidden (another one was shown using a conditional). The error leads me to this line:

void start() {
    if (_isReverse != null && _state != null && _state?._controller != null) {
      if (_isReverse!) {
        _state?._controller?<PUTS CURSOR HERE>.reverse(
            from: _initialDuration == 0
                ? 1
                : 1 - (_initialDuration! / _duration!));
      } else {
        _state?._controller?.forward(
            from: _initialDuration == 0 ? 0 : (_initialDuration! / _duration!));
      }
      isStarted = true;
      isPaused = false;
      isResumed = false;
      isRestarted = false;
    }
  }

and these are my args

CircularCountDownTimer(
          duration: currentSecond,
          fillColor: Colors.transparent,
          ringColor: Colors.transparent,
          height: MediaQuery.of(context).size.height * 0.40,
          width: 180,
          autoStart: false,
          isReverse: true,
          controller: _countdownController,
          onComplete: () async => await _onFinished(),
          textStyle: TextStyle(
            fontSize: 160,
            color: resting ? Colors.grey : Colors.black,
          ),
),
