Fear and anxiety

There is a crazy man in my bldg and he is spraying pesticides into my apartment day and night. I'm really sick and I can't do anything about it. I also have severe anxiety and depression and there are no meds that work for me. I have no one to talk to and I'm afraid I could lose my mind.

Hello, The only way to fight a bully or adversity is to have an Action Plan. Make a plan and implement it. It may take weeks or months, but eventually the squeaky wheel gets the grease (don't give up and by "bugging" (pun) the owners and health department, eventually they will do something). Do you live in an apartment with lots of insects? I don't know your city, but small towns are weird, they get away with much more than large cities with tough laws. Document everything in writing, nothing matters unless you can SHOW the court, not tell the court or health department. You will need to write at least three separate letters to start your complaint.

Here is what I would do and put everything in writing with dates: 1. Write a formal complaint letter to your neighbor and explain you have health issues and the spray is causing you to suffer (don't go into detail as to your medical conditions, keep it generic), offer a solution, either the management send in a pesticide company or use a toxic free spray (that's what I use) phone calls people do not take as seriously and the younger generation does not seem to write letters. 2. Send a copy of the letter with your second letter to the owner/landlord and management company (usually the owner of the building and management company are separate. Explain that the building is a health hazard (look up the local laws and cite them in the letter) 3. File a complaint with the State and County Health department for health code violations with copies of the letters you sent to the tenant and owners. Explain you are being intentionally harmed with toxic poison and the owner is allowing it. Send as many photos of both living and dead creatures that are crawling around your building. The owner will get fined if he does not correct the health code violations. If you have any medical bills or medication receipts, save them for the lawsuit you can file, you will need to talk to legal aid in your area. In the interim, buy your neighbor a non-fragrance toxic free spray. Talking kindly is a good start. Good luck.

Be well.

What excellent suggestions. I can't thank you enough for taking your time to share your knowledge and expertise in this area. My problems,as my mgr explained I can't prove it. I believe it is a man I've had a lot of trouble with in the past but he's very tech savvy and he hacked my phone and disabled the security camera. You correctly identified the problem with a small town they won't do Anything! The medical problems won't show up until I get Parkins from overexposure. I've exhausted every effort and have now just turned it over to God (I am unable to just move). Thank you so much for your consideration. Blessings to you♥️

How do you know he is hacking? Contact your internet provider and ask them for help in tracing the IP address. This is a federal crime, which you can file a police report. Remember nobody cares more about your own problem than you and you alone have to take full responsibility to change your life. Can you move? Have you spoken to the man? You can get a civil restraining order to stop someone from certain behavior, such as hacking, infringing on your right to privacy. Then when he violates the restraining order, you call the police and he is arrested. There are many ways you can fight this. Do not give up. Never allow bad people to control your happiness. In the meantime, change your internet provider and all your passwords.
