Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

my boyfriend is being charged with domestic battery by strangulation. It was a big misunderstanding. I was heavily medicated the morning of the incident and cant remember the details. I did not call the police but I did write a statement to the facts. I dont want to press charges and have told the DA that. But the are trying to force me to testify even though I have told them that I dont remember the details. Is there a way we can have this dropped?
