Unless you are mentally unfit, and it does not sound like you are, she will have no power to do this.  She has to prove you are mentally unfit to make your own decisions.

Sounds as if you have given your mother no choice.  You blew up your rental by being too lazy to clean up after yourself and by getting drunk and smoking indoors.  By the time you are 27 you are expected to be able to follow rules even if you have a medical condition that prevents you from working and supporting yourself.

Now your mother has concluded that you are not able to be a functioning adult and has applied to be your guardian.  The court will grant that given your history.  It is now up to you to show her that you have now got your act together.  That means always taking your meds, staying on top of housework, never smoking indoors and no more alcohol as that prevents your meds working properly.

If you can do all that, ask her to help you find another situation and make sure you do not get kicked out this time.
