I have a neighbor who spreads and tells lie about me to people Ive never meet. As a result I am ignored by neighbors whom I have no argument with or have done anything to give them cause for this attitude. His son uses the driveway to park his work car on, this is not allowed by law because it restricts emergency access to the driveway. When He has been tackled about this his reply is: its my land and I will do what I want. Should a dog foul his grass that is next to a public footpath, he goes out and flicks it into the road. Hes been told about this by another neighbor but continues to do so. If you try to approach him to talk about his behavior he goes off on one, rants and raves waving his arms around then goes into his house and slams the door. He is a retired 82 year old who is very belligerent. He and his wife think they are a cut above everyone else and look down there noses at others. How do I manage this?

I live in a flat above a couple who are clearly mentally unstable.I am like a church mouse and very quiet.I had a breakdown before I moved here and this home was meant to be for healing.These people bang aggressively on the ceiling with the smallest sound I make, and Ive heard them do it to others too.I feel sick and wont approach them because I feel afraid.The police did nothing, the housing did nothing.I am very depressed and its making me ill;and desperate to move. When I read in the article to call the police I shouted at the screen.What on earth are they going to do?They never care

I am being bullied by my neighbour and sutton housing association. This is the second time this has happened. I did not want to ever return to sutton. I was bullied in the first housing association place. As soon as I moved into the second housing association place, well a few days later, the neighbour stuck an abusive letter through the door that was full of blind rage at how dare I be in the flat and the antisocial noise I was making by walking across the floor or turning on a tap. The housing association took the neighbours side even though this woman had now also tried to follow me to the park and I had been shook to the core over the insanity and hatred in the letter, also the mental health services said it was an extremely nasty letter. The housing association then phoned me and said that if I kept upsetting the neighbour, I would be evicted. By now my uncle had died and I had cried in the flat. during the conversation also they have Made Clear to me that as soon as my parents die, they are getting everything and that is the only reason that they put me there after they were going to evict me from the first housing association place. They have made it clear they are to recieve everything of my parents in No uncertain terms, even though they may evict me when they chose. You would think then that I should be allowed some peace. I have taken 6 monthe of thewoman in the flat beneath me bellowing my whole flat down for hours on end in what can only be described as extreme psychotic rage, also slammingdoors. This is whenever she suspcts I am there. I am a nervous wreck I have recently told the housing association to evict me as I am just being made iller and iller with no escape. My parents, one my father in his very late eighties are very very ill. My back story as to why I ended up in a housing association place is my millionaire ex partner of over twenty years ran off with a twenty year old and the coucil dumped me in a hostel for ex convicts and told me to kill myself for years, and I am supposed to count myself lucky that I was given a place years later, threatened with eviction and then given another place and threatened with eviction, please help.
