No calls for 36 hours and no talk of self-harm, either. ---

I’d suggest contacting whoever the head nurse/charge nurse is for the unit the neighbor lives on, and if that doesn’t work, contacting the director of nursing for the facility. They can’t exactly take her phone access completely away, but they can turn off the landline in the room and keep her cell phones locked up to be given to her to use only with supervision…there’s a huge risk of them being stolen/lost if she’s allowed to keep them in her room anyhow. [Note to myself] Avoid moving into a nursing home if at all possible. As someone who has recently had a loved one suffering the onset of a serious mental illness requiring involuntary commitment I feel for you and your wife. But seriously, and maybe its just me, but I feel for this woman as well. She sounds pretty sick and desperate with no one . Save yourself from the anger and do what you have to do to protect your wife. I’m hoping for the best. ---

Changing your phone number works wonders for stopping unwanted calls. ---

IIRC, most cell phones and land line services have options to set up black lists where selected callers simply don’t get through. ---

Wow. It took them 4 months to figure that out? Hope everything is okay now. Did she at least change her phone number? ---

No, I think they found out in December. I just wasn’t aware of it until now or maybe was aware of it earlier and forgot. Phone number hasn’t changed but we haven’t heard from the psycho during that time, either. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/you-psycho-bitch/641834.md?page=1)
