Sorry to hear you have bad neighbours.
if you can’t move property or home in anyway I would suggest keeping away from them as much as possible. Go out for a walk to destress but try not to go at the same time every time you go to give fuel to a regular routine to your neighbours.
Have you you read this page on mental health:
https://www.scope.org.uk/Support/Tips/Disabled-people/Mental-Health#anchor2
Also trying to record or think of positive things you have done or achieved even if it is small stuff.
If any problems persist like noise produced from playing loud music or tghetv to loud or they keep coming around at akward times like the middle of the night, it may be worth keeping a diary of when it happens and then reporting it to the local council or even the police.
Hope this helps. Keep pisitive
A VERY Happy new year Neil to you and all your loved ones.
Good to hear back from you. They do say that a problem shared is a problem halved. But anyway just posting on here may help you even if only slightly. I am by far no expert and you may get more comments or may want phone the Scope helpline in the new year.
A happy new year to you to and hope things improve for you.

I have been where you are at the moment I lived in two flats ,3 tenants made my life a misery the noise was atrocious that one day I just flipped I have SPD I don't like noise any way as I said what my husband tells me I put my trainers on grabbed a hammer and went out side the police was called by my daughter for my own protection I ended up in the cells being watched suicide watch to cut story short my housing accosiation wanted my tency back I said you can have it back gift rapped tthen upstairs kept knocking on door when they were no supposed to we even had a recorder in that failed so the housing gave us points to help us move well a few months after and after ring council the very next day we had a offer of a house we took it,
What I am trying to say is never give up talk to the news paper go to your mp get a letter from your GP CPN to help you move
