Hi @taylorsue
This sounds awful, I'm so sorry you're going through this. They shouldn't be allowed to make your lives a misery. Being targeted like this because of mental health sounds like a hate crime. What have the police said?
Could you escalate with the housing association - if you're not getting the support you need - you can make a complaint. You can also report to your local authority. Most even have online forms that you can report anti-social behaviour with.
There's an organisation called Victim Support which offer support:
https://www.victimsupport.org.uk/help-and-support/get-help
The other thing I'd recommend is calling Scope's helpline - 0808 800 3333. You're in a very stressful situation - and they might be able to take you through the different options available in a way which is hard for us to do online.
I hope things improve for you.

Have got housing assoc involved and they are going to help, police a waste of time, have got a cctv system installed today and have sent daughter to get a rest and a break from it to a family member.
