Inconsiderate, intimidating neighbors cause depression and anxiety?

Posted by robertwills @robertwills, Oct 26, 2024

Lets; say you have neighbors that sit outside your apartment building, smoke "weed" in public view (which is illegal) and use intimidating gestures towards you as you come and go. Could this be enough to cause legitimate depression and anxiety?

Update: I have not seen the men outside in the last two days. This is unusual. I think they are still here though but something is definitely happening.

While this is obviously good, at this point and until they are finally gone I believe there is a risk of significant danger to people and the property. My guess is the landlord knows this too and I hope they made the appropriate security arrangements. As I indicated in a previous update I thought there may have been unmarked law enforcement vehicles around here. This may have been my imagination but on the other hand given the bad character of these people and the history of at least one of the men that would not surprise me one bit. They need to be under constant surveillance.

Thank you for listening. I will update again soon.

Robert,
This is good news! It sounds like the authorities are finally doing something! Maybe the bad guys will get evicted or better yet, end up in jail! Until they are totally gone, stay out of sight as much as you can in case you accidentally run across them. They will be blaming you probably for anything bad that has happened to them. I'll keep praying.

I wish for you is to remain safe and not over reactive as that is hard on the nervous system and body.

Thank you so much. Earlier today I was actually uncontrollably shaking a little bit thinking about the week ahead. This never happened to me. Maybe this is a little bit of what they call a nervous breakdown, It's a very stressful time but I'm ok right now. I'll try to get a good night's sleep and try to stay focused on enjoying my life.

PML: Thank you for your prayers.

When my stress and anxiety escalates I can become shaky too. I do not take any benzos. I do like meditation quiet calming music. I have 2 dogs so there physical presence is very soothing. Take Care. Stay safe. Bullies are actually very weak people.

I usually walk an hour a day and that is almost always very effective for stress and anxiety. But I'm not going out today as things are happening here and the men may be outside. Maybe I'll listen to some good music. Thanks.
