my neighbour is schizophrenic.. and is not taking her meds.

Not some nasty lock them up throw away the key answer. I would save that for those who think only of themselves, or owners. Of horrible looking mutts.

I'm guessing you live in a very safe environment and have never delt with the situation at hand. I'm dealing with this right as we speak. My neighbor has sever paranoid schizophrenia, bangs on our walls and tells us that she knows we are after us and that she would mace us whenever she sees us. That's pretty fing terrifying and stressful, especially when I work hard for everything I have and own and all I want to do in my sh@tty apartment is relax. Life comes with a catch, I have to work to make money to keep the house that I have, but if my taxes are going to pay for EVERYTHING she does...then she should be obligated to stay on her medication. Anyway, sleep well and comfortable in your safety bubble

Apples and very green oranges my friend. There is a HUGE difference between simply "annoying" and actually terrorizing someone. Banging profusely on my wall, saying she's going to mace me is threatening and not an inconvenience. If you are not capable of simply taking your medication (that stables you out) on your own, then how in the hell can you, cook, bath, and frankly live on your own? If I don't pay my rent I'm evicted, if she doesn't take her meds it's only fair she be evicted from the place that my taxes are paying for. Church!

i have had the same problem with my neighbour just reading through Google to get advice and saw your post. my neighbour is a schizophrenic I moved in about 9 years ago in a quiet block of flats no noise everything quiet got on with all my neighbours didn't even meet him for about two years then one day saw him when I got home from work said hello since then he's been banging on my wall all day long as soon as I get in withing 5 minutes he kicks off banging on my wall screaming banging the kitchen cupboards slamming his front door it goes on til about half 4 in the morning ,(I have to get up at 6) he never says anything when I talk to him i ask if he's alright he just walks away then the noise carries on it's everyday now i just asked to council to move me , the thing is no one has do deal with it cos I'm he's next door neighbour in a quiet flat I hear him going mad everyday he's got cameras up outside pointing at my car, if I put rubbish in the bins he will tip he's rubbish outside my front door he even opens he's door every time I walk past outside to go out he's an id**t I can't wait to move hopefully il be out of this mess soon
