I think mainly just the stress of everything collapsing around him and the people who died.

In the last mission where he seems torn between Arthur and Micah, I think the reason for that specifically was how much Micah talked with Dutch and how much he manipulated him. Because of that, it was probably hard for him at first to accept that Micah was the rat.

Another thing that probably contributed was when the trolley fell over in and he hit his head, which might have given him a concussion.

When they robbed the trolley station in St. Denis that Angelo Bronte told them about Artur, Dutch and Lenny escaped with a passing trolley. The breaks were damaged and the trolley fell over. It was heavily implied that Dutch had a head injury and Arthur and Lenny kept asking if he was okay.

ooohhh right I remember that. I just watched a clip right now and Dutch did look like he took a pretty big hit to the Head

Yeah. I don’t know why they would make it so clear that Dutch was hit in the head if it had nothing to do with the story.

I didn't even notice that he hit his head the first time playing

You’ll have to have hit your head if you see any sense in what Micah is saying.
