Difficult situation.

I would hate that too and you have my sympathy. However, you know you are being unreasonable as he can't help it. Probably his parents realise that his noise will be unsettling for neighbours but what can they do? I would invest in noise cancelling earplugs. If they ever ask if the noise disturbs you, don't lie! Maybe he will go to a day centre and that'll help everyone.

I feel for you however the family has to live somewhere. I do not see any solution other than you moving.

What a dreadful dilemma. The poor man can't help it, but it's so difficult for you. Maybe it will improve in time, as said above.
The bottom line is, that if it continued, I would feel I had to move. But I know that's a massive upheaval, so.....
Best wishes.

I know it’s easy to say but I really think that you will get used to it.
Our friends lived right by the side of the main Bristol to London train line, after a while they stopped hearing it, whenever we went there we nearly jumped out of our skin, they were very frequent fast trains with goods trains at night.

Earbuds are a good idea in the interim.

I'm sorry you're in this situation as you have recently moved in, so the thought of moving will be overwhelming. Although it isn't his fault, I can understand how neighbour noises feel like an intrusion. Is the noise constant? Are there quite areas in your home?

A very difficult situation, apart from moving, I don’t know what to suggest and do sympathise.
I had very close neighbours with aggressive dogs barking all day and they ruined my late husband’s retirement as he loved being out gardening.
Maybe as said, you may not notice it after a while.

I’m sorry. What an awful situation.
I would absolutely hate this too.
And I bet that you feel guilty for feeling that way, which makes it worse
I’ve no advice I’m afraid

I am sorry that you have this problem. Neighbours can make a huge difference to how peaceful things are. The poor man can't help being the way he is but knowing that doesn't make your life easier.
Have you thought of wearing earphones to watch TV or listen to music when it gets too much?

My friend had a similar difficulty - her neighbours child has Autism and while she's tries to be understanding, the noise can be absolutely horrendous.

She is now looking to move as there appeared to be no solution to the difficulties she was experiencing.
It's a terribly sad situation.

Such a delicate situation for all concerned. Does he go to any sort of day centre during the week? If so that might be the time to do a spot of gardening. Have you spoken to other neighbours who may be similarly affected to get their take on things?

If this poor man is so uncomfortable it may be he is not being looked after very well. The situation may not go on for very long.
Have you tried talking to his carer? Carers? Not making a complaint but hi how are you ? Sort of thing.
Perhaps they might find a day care centre for him .
So difficult.

You have my sympathy. My daughters next door neighbours have an autistic child. It is heartbreaking to see and hear him when he arrives home from his school. It takes at least 2 people to get a 7yr old into the house.
People looking in might think there’s something going on but this little boy couldn’t be more loved.
There aren’t any answers I’m afraid except moving.
I know my daughter has become desensitised to the screaming as sometimes when I hear it she hasn’t.

Maybe you get to know your neighbours a little Honeysuckleberrie offer them some help if you can. You could better assess the situation then and perhaps offer some solution. Try being proactive, life must be difficult for them as well.

It must be distressing for you it would be if you was used to the quiet. My adult cousin was disabled and made very loud noises to communicate. My lovely aunties neighbours were used to the noise.
Would you think of having a radio on in the garden to distract you.

It’s a difficult one could you make friends of the new neighbours even expressing in a casual way that you feel very upset by the shouts and cries you could then work out if you think he’s being properly cared for Other than this I can’t think what you can do Is there a neighbour the other side ?
You would have expected the new neighbours to have talked it over with you and explained when they first moved in
Very upsetting

Oh Honeysuckleberrie I do feel for you. I know it's not his fault but it's awful for you. You were so looking forward to living in your little bungalow, and it's been spoilt. I hope he settles down. If not I can't see a way out only moving again.

This is difficult for you and I do sympathise, particularly as the weather gets warmer and you want doors and windows open and to be in the garden.
Perhaps as others have said, things will improve as they settle in. He may be reacting to the new environment, and perhaps he will go to a day centre?
I would try and get to know the family.

Perhaps your new neighbour will settle down as he becomes more used to his new home? I do hope so as it must be very difficult for you at present

If he has a complex disability it may be that he is still processing moving house, especially after a pandemic, which was really unsettling for lots of people with autism and learning disabilities. Some people with autism seek sensory responses to regulate and there are ways of helping them do this if they have a proper sensory assessment but as you are only their neighbour I'm not sure what you can do in respect to this.

If you planted some shrubs between yours and theirs would that help distribute the noise?

A lot of day centres haven't even reopened yet so maybe what others said is true too. I actually think you'll get used to it too btw. I think you do. Both my neighbours are annoying and loud in different ways , next doors dog barks constantly. I try not to let it affect me as I think as soon as you start doing that it makes things much worse as everything becomes an irritation

Would some music help? If it were me I’d probably have R3 or Classic FM on loudish, but any other genre or else ‘talk’ radio might be good.

Poor you! That must be awful.
I know it’s not going to really make any difference to the sound but Couid you have a very solid higher fence put up or better still have a high brick wall built? Or maybe a brick built garden building.
You’d feel s bit more detached from the neighbours then at least even if you’d still hear the screaming. X
