I’m feeling a little like I’m losing my mind recently and don’t know what to do. My upstairs neighbor has began to target my movements and make me feel constantly on edge and watched. She started to punish me for making any noise by stomping on the floor or banging/dropping something on the floor. She’s been making a significant amount of more noise the past two weeks compared to the past year of her living above me which is how I know this isn’t random. Texting me or reacting by making noise herself to my TV when it’s on low or not on at all. Texting and calling me late at night. Recently she called me at 1AM to ask if my TV was on. I didn’t see the call till the next morning because I was asleep. She had texted; “Is that your TV” after I didn’t answer. I responded that I was asleep, so no.

I was on the phone with Kaiser the other day and as soon as I get off, I hear her window close. She listened to my entire conversation. She’s a fucking freak and seems to be constantly monitoring my movements.

This is the worst by far. Two weeks ago she was texting and calling me repeatedly while I was at work saying there’s a man in my apartment and that he won’t open the door for her when she says who’s in there and that she’s calling the police if he doesn’t open my door, causing me to have to leave work early and rush home terrified, barely able to drive because I was shaking so much thinking I’m walking into an emergency situation.

I was thanking her and only to find out it was a ploy to get me home quick because my best friend’s dog I had for ONE night barked at another dog passing my door in our building a few times throughout the day (she hates pets). She never mentioned the dog noise until after I got home, and that’s when I realized there was never any man in my apartment.

Also she takes her frustrations out on the entire building. She put inaccurate signs about pet laws in our elevator (people were arguing with her about it in the group chat) and is always angrily texting the group chat often about noise or other random issues she has. She’s like our hall monitor.

I took her pet law sign down one day because I was just pissed at the constant retaliatory noise (stomping/banging), and she posted a new one the very next day. I took that down as well day of, which maybe I shouldn’t have done as it was a little immature but I was just frustrated that this situation was disrupting my sense of peace and not feeling watched in my own home.

I’ve always known that she’s a tad unhinged but I guess I’m her target now. We actually used to be very friendly. I was always very kind to her and vice versa. But she’d always complain about people to me so I don’t know why I’m so in shock it’s circled around to me.

It just sucks so bad. I feel so on edge now all the time when I’m home. I’m not gonna confront her, it would probably make it worse and I don’t want to give her any of my energy and let this hopefully die out on its own. I’m trying so hard to pretend she doesn’t exist and not give her peace of mind and focus on being in my own world, but it feels impossible.
