Kids playing ball inside the house

I suffer from anxiety and the neighbour's child keeps playing ball inside the house. Whenever the ball hits the wall it makes a loud noise that travels into my flat and also shakes things off the wall. This makes me jump and making my anxiety worse. Now, whenever I hear a similar sound outside the house it immediately makes me anxious as if I'm at home. I have asked them several times if they could minimise the kicking of the ball particularly after 11 but some days he keeps doing it for hours until 1 am. I haven't told them about my anxiety because it's really none of their business but it is really affecting my way of life.

I know kids have to play but my health is really suffering. I can't move because I just bought my place.

Does anyone know what I can do?

If he's doing it until 1am and kt can be heard in your house I would call the council as it would probably be classed as a nuisance noise.
