Fredericksburg, VA asked in Family Law, Libel & Slander and Small Claims for Virginia

Q: It's extreme of me to ask, but is there a legal violation where an individual is mental crippling and hindering me?

I currently live in my mom's house, and have been struggling to find a job lately (I could've sued Lowe's for wrongful termination, but that's different). Being out for several months, I've been trying to mentally recover from the many episodes of depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation and more. My mom has been neglecting the issues I kept presenting her that is affecting me. As of now, it is starting to become possible that she's the causation for my ongoing suicidal ideation. Recently, she has determined to turn the title of my car back into her name and taking the keys (she also mentioned credit card, but it's linked to her account, so that's not an unfair issue, it was only when needed). I don't agree to this and strongly believe this is a retaliation act of me sharing the issues she has caused me for several months, and like many times before, she is attempting to hinder me further and leave me stranded in my distress on how to resolve things. My question is if this is an offense.
