Answer
Welcome to Ask Pat,
It sounds like your neighbours have been
making noise which is affecting you. You also mention it has been happening for
ages, it makes sense that this could be unpleasant for you. Whether it is
causing you to feel stressed, angry, upset, unsure, or even scared about what
is going on around you, you have the right to get help and support in coping
with these feelings. You also have the right to feel safe and to be able to get
adequate rest.
Do you have a trusted adult you can chat to
about how the noise is impacting you? Sometimes it can help to chat to, for
example, a parent, another family member or another adult that you feel
comfortable talking to, about something you may all be experiencing.
If you don’t feel like you can chat to
anyone, there is some information about feeling angry or stressed on the
Childline website under ‘How I Feel’ then ‘Feelings and Emotions’.
If you would like to chat with us, Childline is here to listen to, and support you. You can call Childline on 1800 66 66 66 (24 hours a day), text Childline on 50101 (10am – 4am every day) or chat with Childline online on this site (10am – 4am every day).
Take care,
Pat.
