Hi Chiarieds,
Look forward to chatting with friendly people! It is nice to have a virtual community of nice people, quite distinct from the community in which I live.

Hi Tori
So nice to hear from you. My weekend was okay except for the ongoing anti-social behaviour from neighbours. Deliberate banging on my wall and deliberate stomping up and down a wooden staircase. I am isolated completely because they have launched a smear campaign against me, typical of sick minded people. I just keep praying! I guess I am not alone. Nice to have friends here who are kind. -
I'm sorry to hear about the anti-social behaviour of your neighbours @Dempseym. Is this something you've reported to anyone?I am isolated completely because they have launched a smear campaign against me, typical of sick minded people.What do you mean when you say that they've launched a smear campaign against you?
Do you have any other friends or family that you can connect with in-person?
Yes, the community is always here for you

Hi Tori, The disability harassment has been going on for 5 years now. Victim support and my Assembly Member have been supporting me. The Police have supported the offenders and not one incident has been investigated in accordance with policy. I complained about them discriminating against me and the apathy towards my suffering got worse. My son has a learning difficulty, 3 of the offenders extended their harassment towards him and his support worker. The support worker put forward a statement to ensure something was done and to prevent further upset for my son as he has witnessed the bullying of me for so mah years and it has affected him so badly. Suffice to say, the statement was never mentioned and the offenders were supported and I have been accused of being the problem. The neighbours have been spreading malicious rumours that I am mentally ill and it is me that is the problem. I am a professional disabled Civil Servant and my reputation has been destroyed within this community. My work colleagues and my senior managers are appalled at the gossip and are brilliant in supporting me. My Hate Crime worker at Victim support is really supportive also, she is frustrated with the police and the council as they are collaborating together to ensure nothing is done. All despite a former Anti-Social (ASB) behaviour manager who sent letters to 3 of the gang as they all targeted me on V-E Day with their friends. The ASB manager was moved once the police became aware as it highlighted their failings. They have put another manager in who now follows the narrative of no offences identified, case closed. Appalling corruption. I am just left to put up with it, it is so hard to suffer such insjustice.
