I guess with me, I came to a very similar situation but got lucky. I have been at my job a lot, and the situation has improved somewhat. I did talk to my mother a bit about it. Rather than discussing the person aspect - "YOU DRIVE ME NUTS" - I approached it from a more practical standpoint. for you , maybe something like "I need my own space, and if I don't have it it worsens my depression", or "If I am forced to do something I"m not comfortable with it worsens my depression because I feel like I'm useless (the driving incident?)...
with me it was "I need a room so that I can practice. I CAN'T do that in the room you laid out for me"... that kind of thing
good luck
let me know what happens
