I want know if I have grounds to file for personal damages after a woman claims to have a personal interest in me and then just leaves me without any explanation

Hi ****! In Quebec, personal damages typically involve physical or psychological harm. Emotional distress from a relationship may not be sufficient grounds for legal action unless there are exceptional circumstances, such as harassment.
Could you provide more details about any harm or losses you experienced?

I’m referring to a situation that took place in Toronto Canada. The psychological impact has impacted me to the point where I haven’t been able to fulfill my obligations at work.

Hi ****! Since your situation took place in Toronto, Ontario law would apply. Emotional distress can be grounds for a personal injury claim if it severely impacts your life and work.
- Have you sought any medical or psychological treatment for your condition?

Yes . I am currently being treated by chiropractor and also sought relief in a hyperbolic chamber.
