Anti-social behaviour can take over your life. It can also last for a long time and you may need some help to cope with that.

Suffering the effects of anti-social behaviour can be very difficult. It can affect your health, both physical and mental. We believe the most common emotions that victims of anti-social behaviour experience are fear, frustration and fury. You may be feeling all three of these - you can easily navigate onto each page (Frightened, Frustrated, Furious) to find advice and tips to help you cope with each emotion.

Remember, anti-social behaviour often takes a long time to resolve and to get results you may need to learn to live with the situation for a few weeks or months. Don't let it take control of you.
