*april* Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) My neighbour has been standing outside my apartment smoking and looking through the window, she has also had her friends around and laughing at me, and filming me on her phone I have been told I'm paranoid. Today I gave her the finger and she confronted my partner, he apologised. Iam very upset, she might hit me and when I call the police they will say it is my fault because I gave her the finger, that's how the police work here. I find it hard enough to leave the apartment anyways. I don't want to live like this. apparently it is all my fault, now I feel like she will bully me more. I can not stop having panic attacks all day I tried to get to the doctors about my tonsils and chest and they said a 2 hour wait so I looked myself in the bathroom and then went home.

AnnaBanana Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Can you say something to the landlord? Does she live in the same building/house? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*april* Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) she lives opposite in the same complex, if i report her she will know it's me. my partner has told me to ignore her, but it's not easy. I feel like all the neighbours hate me Edited February 17, 2014 by *april* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Turtle Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Your neighbours sound like jerks. Have you got another appointment with the doctor about your chest? It sounds important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo 'n dye Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 If she is looking through your window, and filming you, you need to call the police. Invasion of privacy should not be taken lightly. Often it is the precursor to more heinous acts. However, be certain that you have documentation of the allegations. Take photos of her looking through your window and of her filming you. It should not matter that she will know who reported her. Rather it is important that your privacy is maintained.

*april* Posted February 17, 2014 Author Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) I don't know what to do about it, I would like to move to a nice quite area, it's all too much. ugh. if i take photos of her, she will accuse me of taking pictures of her, and the police will not take it seriously I feel like im having a nervous breakdown. She isn't standing outside my window looking in, she is standing opposite about 5 metres away, looking in, i shut the curtains but i think she can still see me. she says she's a smoker so she has to stand there, but she is always looking in. I don't have any evidence she is filming me, it could all be in my head, but it's scary. I don't want it to escalate with her friends vandalising my car or hurting me so i will try and ignore her. i will get an appointment to see the doctor soon. I don't know if it's psychosomatic or not Edited February 17, 2014 by *april* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saveyoursanity Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 I'm sorry she has to stand so close to you. Do you need to be in front of that window when she's outside? What makes you think she's filming you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickler Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 (edited) Just for a reality check? At a time when she is not outside, have your partner stand close to the window, draw your curtains, and go stand where she usually has her smoke. See if you can see him. Now, if you can see him clearly, you may consider buying "blackout curtains." I am not there and cannot tell if she is watching you or not. But if you can assure yourself that there is no way to see inside your windows by getting thicker draperies, it might well be worth it in terms of peace of mind. At least, that was my thought. Hope you feel less intruded-upon soon. Edited February 20, 2014 by Stickler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
