Started dissociating 8-10 months ago, I hate it

So I (20m) have been mildly dissociating for what feels like about 8 months now, my main lead on the cause is that I started dating my partner (19f) around 10 months ago now and she has very complex health needs (crohns, endometriosis, chronic migraines, etc) and in the past 10 months I have been into more hospitals with her than ever in my entire life, I'm thinking maybe some of those late night emergency hospital trips caused extreme stress in the moment made me end up dissociating as a coping mechanism????

I am medicated

(Fluoxetine, concerta)

And I partake in occasional drinking and cannabis use.

I am very worried that these wonderful early relationship moments with my partner will be repressed and I won't remember the little things :/

Thanks for reading! Will edit and add if I think of more.
