Well this beats all...

 Never had it crossed my mind to call the cops because my neighbours were having an argument until today. They've been throwing things and shouting for months now and it overtriggers me because I have a serious anxiety disorder. Why does this keep happening? I'm with my girlfriend and her two year old toddler won't go to sleep because of the neighbours going at it. Even after the police left, they just continued the fight as if nothing happened. 

The slightest sound now startles me and my medication is NOT working under these circumstances. I haven't been this afraid in years and it triggers something traumatic to say the least, since I'm very susceptible to sound. I tried to play an easy game on my cellphone and wait for the storm to pass. I have no role in this. I'm just very concerned for those around me right now. My phone shaking in my hands as I got the police station phone number at the ready. My breath elevated because my fight or flight mechanism won't stop kicking in. Even to the point that it freezes me. 

The cops are next door again. My guess is the neighbours from the other side called. The next door lady is COMPLETELY insane. The cops came to check and hear our side of the story for the second time. She claims we banged the wall, while it's them making all the noise. My GF is trying to put her toddler to bed for pete's sake!!! What is this madness? Has the world gone berzerk? If I had a grain of respect, compassion and trust for others outside my circle then it's completely gone now. Thank you humanity. For once again proving you're nothing more than an annoying self-destructive parasite on the face of this poor planet.
