Need some advice

I’m currently 15, and I’ve been in this state of derealization for a year now.

It first stated slow, I would experience it in school once in my day on a daily basis, and then go back to normal. Eventually it become more ongoing and I would have very few moments where things felt real again. And when I did, they only lasted for a second or two. I don’t even get those anymore. Now it’s like I’m watching myself experience life it feels like. I’ve gotten use to it I guess, I have to remind myself this isn’t normal. I feel more disconnected when I’m going through a stressful moment which makes sense. But I really need some advice on how to move forward, I don’t want my symptoms to get worse. I would tell my parents, I love them, but mental health isn’t something they’re the most familiar with. I don’t know how they would react. I don’t know if they would actually help me get treatment or something.

Is there a way I can handle and get rid of this on my own? Or must I get some sort of medical attention?
