Moved into a nice apartment in Lakewood back in December. Thought everything was going smooth except that my upstairs neighbor’s evening starts when my bedtime begins 4-5 times per week. She isn’t being obnoxious or loud or anything. I’m assuming she is a younger college student or something. I’d probably do the same. When she walks, it’s not just a muffled thud. I can literally hear the laminate cracking. I know the houses out here are old but this is impossible. Last night, I went with ear plugs and sleeping pills and she still managed to wake me up at 2am. I’m literally turning into a zombie and my performance at work is going downhill. How do you all cope?

You can try downloading a white/pink noise generator on your phone and playing it when you goto sleep. Then hopefully any noises she makes won't be so jarring as to wake you up.
