Horrible neighbours

[Keeleyleft1991]

Hi i need some advice/help ive currently been diagnosed with adjustment disorder anxiety and depression and schizophrenia my neighbours next to me are horrible they smoke weed all day and you can smell it in my flat and he blears his music also the people above us bang around slam doors till 5 or 6 in the morning its not fair as my husband has to get up at 7 for work i did report this to my housing association and they sent my neighbour a letter which made it worse because the man approched my husband at the door and threatened him they said they are all going to get together and get us out we have them standing outside our window smoking and looking in this has made my mental illness even worse ive had my tablets but up to a high doseage and it still doesn't help all the housing association have said is to download a noise app and it dose not pick anything up i dont even want to leave my flat because im sacred.

You need to start writing down dates and times of every occasion where they threaten you, make noise, smoke weed, etc. Write down the time/date, what happened and how it made you feel. The council housing dept (or your housing assn) may even give you a form to fill in.

The council won't do anything without that. You may need to keep updating the list with details of incidents for a few weeks or months before they'll do something.

If you find they won't help then you need to find who your councillor is for Ward - they may be able to help and can easily kick council staff into action.

They won't do anything about someone walking around all night upstairs. Buy some ear plugs as that will help you to sleep.

Have you requested transfer to another flat?

Ive requested for a transfer yes and all they say to me is look on home hunt or house swapper which i go on everyday my doctor has even wrote a letter to the housing association saying i need to be re housed as its making my mental illness even worse
