Am I banned after 9 month overstay in Sweden?

You did a good thing by walking up there on your own, and then by voluntarily leaving the country. The mere fact that they gave you a paper and let you go to the airport on your own probably shows that you are not banned - otherwise they would have forced-transported you directly to the airport.

However, if you apply for a visa again, you will need to convince them this would not happen again. They will ask "What if you have 'personal problems' again - will you overstay again?", and it will be hard to convince them that this wouldn't happen again. Unless you have strong arguments, you will probably be declined a further visa.
