My car has been cutting off while driving for 6 months
now. Its now doing this everyday for the past 3 weeks. When it cuts off i put it in park, turn it off, cut the radio and heat off. Then I press the unlock button located on my door, to reset the alarm. It will not cut back on unless I hit tat button. Then I start it up, it always starts right back up. This happens everyday now, what is going on. Do I need to deactivate my alarm?

is it a factory alarm that came with the car or is it an after market alarm. If it is factory i would go and have the BCM (body control module) scanned. If it is aftermarket, i would remove it. Your local shop can tell you if it is factory or after market.
