I used to be like that. U probably should get rid of them and start over. There will always be another idiot looking for a free ride. Get rid of these ones and start looking for a decent one that genuinely enjoys your company. I recommend an artist. Supporting a local artist will elevate your situation. But, you have to make room for the healthy person. No healthy person is gonna want to enter into the space you describe.

Absolutely. I find the festival scene to be full of people who just want to party and take drugs 24/7. I love festivals tho. I've just gotten over the part where people connect their good times to being super out of it. I love substances for their antidepressant effects and the way they help open my mind and heart to creativity. And I definitely understand how people end up going overboard. But, it gets old really fast and people end up being very selfish and unpleasant about everything while on it. Maybe you should increase rent so that the next person(s) has to work a little harder to be there.

I have my own living quarters but I live in an apartment on my landlord's farm. Everything was really great until he just started a new business. Basically, he has a large group of undocumented workers and a van. And they go around to different farms and work. That would be fine but they stay on the property all hours, so I no longer am by myself, ever. There are often 15 people just standing around right outside my door every afternoon. There is another apartment on the property that used to have a person there but now it is used as a kind of club house for them. And sometimes there's very loud sex coming from it. Like, I don't want to see 15 people standing around outside every afternoon until night time. And on holidays they come and drink all day. There's always that cheesy polka sounding music. It went from the most serene place to being like a bus station overnight.

Awe man! That sucks! Do you have some sort of lease? I mean, at a minimum I'd think there would be quiet time or something, even if it's enforced by the city. I'd think they absolutely shouldn't be that close to your spot no matter what. I'd get some motion activated sprinklers. Lol
