I bought a property near a church, about 30 meters. When I bought it and years before the bells were “off” and it’s barely used.

Since a year they fixed the bell and clock and now it starts at 05:30 in the morning, 08:00, 11:00, 12:00, 01:00 and 18:00

For each 5 minutes very loud.

I talked with the people who work at the church and said it is a huge issue for me, especially cause I work nights.

They don’t care and refuse to make it quieter and won’t reduce the length of each time it starts the bells.

Long story short: I am in therapy since a year because I have a huge debt, I can’t move away and I can’t sleep anymore. I have no idea what I can do with my life I am afraid I am going to get even more mentally ill than I am now. Selling is also now no more option, who would buy a place where you can’t fall asleep or if you fall asleep you wake up by massive bell noise.

The only time I sleep is when I can afford vacation twice a year…

My therapist wrote my insurance and they are thinking of giving me the oppertunity to sleep somewhere else for one to two weeks every three months. They will pay for it, but this can’t be the solution?!

    I know this isn’t fiscally realistic but… before you leave this world, donate the house to the church of satan.

    or a mosque that’s really into the prayer call.

        Spoiler alert: you’re going to die and there’s nothing you can do to stop it from happening.

          Yeah, no shit, but coupled with the context of the post it makes it sound like suicide.

            wasn’t intended. the intention was don’t let them win even if it’s driving them nuts.

            You are not guaranteed to live until tomorrow. You aren’t even guaranteed to live long enough to finish typing out a reply to this comment. Its unlikely you’ll die so soon, of course, but the chance is never 0.

            And considering you’ll be dead for an almost infinite amount of time, we’re all just moments away from dying on universal time scales.

            If OP plans on staying in their house until they die of old age (plausible) then the comment has nothing to do with suicide. Or maybe OP is already old and going to die soon. Or maybe they’ll be hit by a car tomorrow. Or maybe they’re having a heart attack/stroke/aneurysm right now.

            Point is, if there is something you want to do (gift a house to the church of Satan, for example) it has to be done before you die.

            Personally, I don’t think we as a society talk about our deaths enough and it really isn’t normalized for most people. Have you thought about the fact that the universe will still be here in 800 billion years, but your body will have been ripped to shreds and spread across the cosmos to seed new life on distant planets recently?
