Not being in control

4 Replies

I feel like my upstairs neighbor is making noises on purpose to disturb my being. I'm stuck here for now but can't have piece of mind, I wear ear plugs to lessen the disruptions. I sent another complaint to the landlord but doubt they care. This was the weekend I weened myself off Ambien but my nerves are so bad I want to sleep the rest of the evening. I have a long time, if ever, before I can afford a house and so much turmoil. Seems like people are constantly using me as a target, and having low self esteem makes me feel helpless often.

Can you find a distraction inside or outside of your apartment? A hobby or something?

What are they doing up there ??? Are you up to going to their apartment and telling them you haven't been feeling good and could they please tone down the noise? May not do any good but worth a try. Sounds like that building could use some better insalation. Misspelled that word, but hope you can make out what I meant to say. Ha

She stomps when she walks. I wouldn't feel safe going up there. People are evil nowadays.
