My girlfriend isn't feeling well so I decided against working today.
Added 2021-10-09 13:10:00 +0000 UTCPS: I'll post the polls tomorrow btw ^^
That's the short version.
My girlfriend has moderate (between light and severe) depression and visual/acccustic hypersensitivity at times.
Because our neighbor had obnoxiously loud music playing she decided to ask him to turn it down a notch. This is the first time we ever complained about any matter and he was quite rude.
Because my girlfriend can't deal with rude people like him, because of previous bad experiences with other people, she was constantly crying and apathetic at times. I managed to calm her down and she's smiling again, but I still don't want to leave her side and just work on stuff while she's not feeling perfectly fine.
I can't be mad at him just yet because he doesn't know of her illness. Still the situation is kinda tense right now so I wouldn't have been in the right mindset to work anyways.
I will talk to him once all the emotions have boiled down and I'll go from there.
Tomorrow's my day off so it's unfortunate timing as always but that's how it is right now.
I might work on something if everything's perfectly fine again or at least finish the roughs for the Violet Reality Rewrite but it highly depends on the situation.
Thanks for your understanding,
have a nice weekend and stay safe!

2021-10-10 09:28:03 +0000 UTCWe have the saying that "The freedom of a person ends where the freedom of another person gets impaired" which happened in that case because it impaired her living quality. She has no problem with sounds all the time, only when her depression hits her. It's also worth mentioning that the landlord is part of my family so if complaints and the police, if he really is that stubborn, can't fix the situation I still can have a talk with the landlord himself.

I couldn't believe he said that to my gf even though we are never loud and practically do nothing that impairs his peace and quiet lol. I hate hollow threats.

2021-10-10 08:11:39 +0000 UTCShe is feeling way better now ^^ Yeah, I have zero tolerance for pretentious bullshit. I will warn him one time each time he has music too loud. IF he ignores it I'll call the cops and if that doesn't work I'll just talk with my family. They own that house after all.

2021-10-10 08:09:09 +0000 UTCThank you! It's not like migraines, more like she's getting more and more overwhelmed and exhausted by too much sounds and visuals when she has a down phase.

2021-10-10 08:07:23 +0000 UTCShe's feeling way better now but has this subconcious stress lingering in her mind that he might complain about something or keeps being an ass. I still have to talk to him or maybe he talks to me, who knows. I'll just reassure her that everything's fine. My family owns that house after all.

2021-10-10 08:06:05 +0000 UTCAs a life long renter who can hear some dog whistles and get sensory migraines. I bought noise cancelling over the ear headphones. They muffle most noise even off but if you put on white noise at lowest volume, it's better. I like forest rain or ocean beach.

2021-10-09 18:16:36 +0000 UTCTake your time. There are always some assholes who are rude for such a little thing like loud music. It is good that you stay at the side of your GF, because there is nothing more important then that right now. She needs you and your mental strength right now my friend. So take your time, stay at her side. And when the neighbour starts to mock around call the cops. With such people it is useless to argue with - they just understand only one language mostly.

2021-10-09 13:49:00 +0000 UTCYou too stay safe and I hope your GF gets better, I can sort of sympathise if it's anything like migraines and I still remember the headaches associated with loud noise tho I was bedridden from it I still found it uncomfortable and best regards to the both of you π
