Today I over heard 2 of my neighbours talking about me,they live either side of my property.

The man neighbour stated to the other neighbour(female) that I had reported him for feeding the birds.I have not done so.

Then the female stated I was half round the bend,and unfortunaly people like me have to live amongst them and then they both stated laughing,

I phoned the H.A up and reported there behavoiur,I have to now wait for the housing officer to get back to me,

I am deeply shocked,saddened and feel very upset on her remarks.

I doubt very much the H.A will do much,but I am prepared to take it higher if they do not,NO One deserves language and discrimination such as this.

Thankyou in advance for any advice

    So sorry to hear you are dealing with this .

    Its a awful situation to have to deal with .

    My heart goes out to you .

    People in glass houses comes to mind .

    We have someone on out street looks down on lots of people

    Ive been out on the back yard many many times and heard her having conversation with her husband slagging someone off regularly .

    I dont think they have got anything else better to do .

    Making stuff up about you shows how low these people really are .

    I hope the H . A get back to you soon and things get sorted out .

    I definately feel for you .

    Its not you

    Its them .

    Terrible horrible unkind people .

    They are a utter disgrace

    You are very welcome @Charlie5 .

    Some people are so narrow minded .

    This is on them not you .

    Those people are not nice people.

    I empathise with you so much

    Try not to get upset about it, they are best ignored.

    I'm sorry you've had to deal with this.

    At an address I was at between 1995 -2009 The latter 4 years I had a few neighbours keep making malicious personalised comments to and About me regarding my disabilities and differences.

    I moved in 2009 I lived at that address until March this year and had no problems because I had absolutely nothing to do with any of them and kept myself to myself.

    At this new address the same, my mum chats with two neighbours and says they're nice but I won't speak.

    As someone who rarely speaks to anyone because of the various problems causes my autism and anxiety It hurt that at that address I had issues I made a huge effort despite it making me very unwell to socialise with a couple of them and that's the thanks I got.

    well done for not sitting back and taking it. you deserve to live in peace without worry or upset.

    This is human nature, unfortunately. I wonder what my local council could do, if i overheard neighbours talking about me?

    That doesn't mean it is righr, or that it isn't hurtful to hear.

    I understand the pain.

    What I'm going to say isn't to trivialise things, I'm hoping instead it will help you to feel better, but no matter who you are, how likable you are, how nice you are, there will always be some people who will speak badly of you and people who will speak highly of you, it's just life at the end of the day.
