I have a real problem with noise at my flat. Before now, noise was not a massive issue, although I have always been fairly sensitive. But the noise is now relentless, particularly because it occurs at NIGHT TIME when I am trying to sleep!!!!!!!. Car noise is constant, and makes me startle and awaken at the smallest sound of an engine. The neighbour plays music that is too loud, and has night-time arguments. Meanwhile, my parents house is peaceful at night - no noise at all. I feel as though I have made a mistake in moving out, because of the noise, but can't tell my parents this because they would be devastated, and would tell me that there is no going back. I could not bear the stress of telling them how I feel. I spend weekends with them, and last night I fell asleep only a few minutes after hitting the pillow, which is rare for me. This shows how tired I must have been. I still feel tired, and have just one more night with them before another sleepless week. I am already anxious, and worry that the long term effects of noise will wreck my health. Why should I have to put up with it???. I hate this noisy world sometimes. I wish the flat was as quiet as home, my home, my parents house, that will always be my true refuge -ie a proper house, not some noisy flat/apartment. I feel angry, upset and homesick.
What is more, this is all my fault because I instigated the move in the name of independence. I know I would have to probably move out sooner or later, but my parents home will always be home for me. I just want to move back, but know that I can't. I did not expect constant noise when before now night time was dead quiet!.
Hope,
I have found in all my problems areas that having a potential solution is nearly as good as the solution.
Basically ask your support experts for a solution, try it out and if it does not work go back to them and tell them so.
That way you do not feel so alone, are not carrying the problem on your own shoulders and scrapping in the dirt for a solution.
Let the experts in Autism advise and assist you.
WHERE ARE YOU NAS ? Forgot they only pretend to be a care service ? But we can send you information prescription or list of strangers names, acting as some sort of agency to a collective gang ????? COME ON NAS ! work with the real people, with real problems and give them real solutions, not word service,, talk so cheap, maybe not for the NAS, probably works out at £10,000 a word for the taxpayer.
