how have the last few days been?
maybe you could talk to your mother, arrange to see a therapist or counselor, and agree that if you do that, she won't be as intrusive... i know that you may hate to hear this (i know i did) but you've broken her trust, and it takes work to earn it back. agreeing to get professional help may allow your mother to feel more secure and less protective.
if you won't see a professional, i'd still suggest setting up some goals with your mom (concrete ones that lead to being safer and getting better) that you can work to meet. as you accomplish them, she will have to give you more privacy and independence in return.
