I am so sorry you’re going through this. You’ve gotten a lot of good and very valuable advice here, you should give it all consideration. Although, with that said, we did pretty much the same thing to my son. He has all the same issues (and more) that you are going through. He now tells me, five years later, it was one of the best things we could have done for him. He was scared also but it gave him confidence and accountability. It’s called “tough love” and believe me it’s hard as hell and heartbreaking to do that to your child.

Did your tough love involve taking away healthcare for someone with health problems? The other stuff seems like tough love to me.
The threat of taking away healthcare from someone who actively needs it and legally entitled to it is so extremely risky and, therefore, cruel. Medical care is a very different topic from everything else here. OP is at an age where her parents are legally required to provide health insurance coverage.
