Modding on the Spectrum

The public order office contacted me about the incident on 4 April at 1 am (the night I first called the police about the constant slamming of doors). They asked me for a written witness statement. I received the letter very late (only yesterday and the letter was dated 9 April). That's why I called the woman from the public order office today and told her about it. She will wait longer because of the public holidays. She was very friendly and understands my situation.

The problem is that I don't currently have any witnesses and the public order office can't do much without witnesses. But I should still send her my witness statement. I dropped the letter off at the post office earlier.

Because of my social anxiety, I have difficulties asking the neighbours who live near the neighbour in question whether they noticed anything on the night in question. My mum has offered to help me with this, but it won't happen until after Easter. I mentioned these difficulties in my witness statement. I wrote that I would try anyway and that I would provide witnesses later.

The woman from the public order office gave me a tip: I could describe my problem with the neighbour to the contact police in my district and they could in turn speak into his conscience in a friendly manner.

I was woken up this morning at around 5 o'clock by a slamming door. It couldn't have been the person I suspected. According to the concierge, he was on the night shift and didn't come back until around 8am. His friend was in his own apartment (I mean I saw the friend leave, actually I only saw him from behind). So who's the door slammer now? Because of today's realization, my mother and I are not going to look around for witnesses after all.

Instead, we're going to concentrate on the move. This Friday the paintwork will be checked by the janitor. If everything is in order, the next step is for the landlord to give me suggestions for a new apartment.

The vacation has done me good, so I can react more calmly to the slamming doors. Today I worked from home for a change and thanks to the earplugs and headphones I was able to ignore the slamming doors for a while. At around 3 p.m., I'd had enough and reprimanded the person. After that, it was quiet again.

I have a theory about the door slamming. I just remembered a note that was on the main entrance door a few months ago. In it, a person asked for the squeaking of the door to please stop. Sometime after that, I didn't hear the squeaking anymore and instead heard the slamming of doors. If my theory is correct, I am not the “direct” victim but a victim of “collateral damage”.
