Apartment living can become difficult when neighbors constantly complain about normal household noise.

The following story is about a man who has a downstairs neighbor who kept disturbing him throughout the night.

The neighbor had repeatedly hit the ceiling whenever he showered or made ordinary sounds inside his condo.

Things became even stranger when the neighbor started using a ceiling fan and subwoofer at random hours to keep him awake.

Ugh! Won’t you be irritated by this, too? Let’s take a closer look!

How illegal is it to mess with someone’s ability to sleep?

I’ve been renting a condo without a lease for almost a year at this point.

And I am gone for hours, easily from 7 am to 10 pm.

The kid below me apparently has super hearing and can hear everything I do and has an issue with it.

When I first moved in, the kid below me would hit the ceiling, especially when I was taking a shower.

To the point I tried moving to the couch for a while to sleep.

This man slept in his car once because he couldn’t deal with his downstairs neighbor.

But that was not enough.

About three or four months ago, I called the police because they were making so much noise.

What I thought at the time was a ceiling vibrator, but it turned out to just be a ceiling fan.

Recently, I went on vacation for 2 weeks, and when I got back, he was hitting (his) ceiling for hours.

To the point I didn’t even bother sleeping inside and slept in my car for two nights before I couldn’t deal with it again.

He noticed that his neighbor would intentionally annoy him.

Now, this kid uses a ceiling fan and a subwoofer to mess with me throughout the night.

Generally, he turns on the ceiling fan as soon as I get into bed and at 2 am.

But he also likes to turn it on at random hours throughout the night.

I try to be quiet and not let the kid hear me.

But he won’t turn off the ceiling fan until he knows I’m awake for sure.

Now, he’s considering taking the matter to court.

For a while, I thought it was because I snore, but I started using mouth tape and nose breath strips.

But clearly, he just enjoys messing with me.

I thought about reaching out to his downstairs neighbor to go to court.

Because that neighbor has more than once yelled at his mom because of the amount of noise he makes.

Whoa! OP sleeping in his car because he cannot get peace inside his own condo shows this wasn’t a small issue.

If the neighbor really was deliberately timing the noise around his bedtime and waking hours, it would be incredibly frustrating.

However, if he decides to bring this to court, proving intentional harassment might be difficult.
