I think this merits a lot of exploration. It involves a relationship -with your father- that of course has spanned many many years and will take some time to figure out. Maybe the 'label' of dissociating or not is less important than exploring the circumstances of the time, how you reacted and felt across different experiences and situations. Maybe, for example, there were times when you did have feelings about these things, other times you didn't, and in between -it's naturally very complicated and will take some time to explore.

I'm sorry you're feeling triggered now by anger (TV, etc.) when you weren't before. Likely because you've been thinking about this lately. Hopefully as you explore it more in therapy, that fear will dissipate.
