My question involves civil rights in the State of: New Mexico
First of all, this is my first post and I'm very new to this site so I'm not really sure if I'm posting in the correct area! Secondly, I have pretty severe social anxiety which is why this is bothering me so much.
So, I've been renting an apartment that might be considered a town house--I'm not sure. I have to share my front patio area with more than three familes, and I have to walk past one family's front door to get to mine. On the other side are my neighbors who I'm pretty sure are harassing me. When I moved in here 6 months ago with my fiance, the harassment started. Every time we would open our door, they would open theirs so they could stare at us. That means if we were leaving, they'd do it. If we were coming home, they'd rip open their door and stare at us. This lasted for a month and a half before they stopped. When this happened, we felt very freaked out and actually feared for our saftey. So after this, they started sitting outside for HOURS on end, even in pretty bad weather. When we told the apartment complex about this, we failed to get anything in writing, and they just told us, and I quote, "Yeah, those guys are ***holes." I know now I should've gotten something in writing. Every day for 6 months, they would come in and out multiple times every hour and slam the door shut. It gives me panic attacks when this happens. This might not be helpful, but they're old enough to be my grand parents.
Fast-foward to the summer: My fiance and I are trying to watch TV, but we can't because the neighbors keep slamming their door more frequently and heavily than they normally do, possibly because I had the first guests I've ever had over that day, and my fiance had enough and so he slammed the door. Two hours later, we had a bunch of police officers at our door because someone called and reported the sound of multiple gunshots coming from my apartment. Multiple neighbors called, according to them, and I only share walls with two apartments, so it's not hard to see who called on me. It's hard to say that they called because of us slamming our door, but seeing as how we've been quiet, considerate neighbors for 6 months, I have no idea why they would do this. I'm now afraid to so much as drop a pot in the kitchen when I'm cooking dinner because I'm afraid the police will get called again.
Last night was my last straw, I don't think I can take anything more from these guys. They moved their chairs so I can't see them when I come driving up, and I was gone for a while. I didn't notice until I was a foot away from my door, and they tried to talk to me. I just came inside after exchanging a few pleasantries, because I was having a very bad panic attack. It took me about 45 minutes to calm down. These neighbors sat outside for 3 hours after this, and that meant I couldn't walk my dogs because they were taking turns standing right by our door and talking.
Is this considered harassment? They're either outside every time I try to leave, or coming outside--I can't help but feel I'm being targeted by them, and I do not feel safe in my apartment. Unfortunately, I got laid off last month and now we can't afford to move or break our lease. I was supposed to do something today, but I have been putting it off since I got up this morning because I'm afraid of my neighbors being outside again. They would knock on my door a few months ago, but I don't answer my door unless someone I know is coming over, so I think this has something to do with me obviously being home and not answering the door for them.
