A:
I'm really sorry to hear about what you're going through. It's important to know that you have rights protecting you from discrimination based on disability. Start by documenting each instance where you believe your landlord has violated these rights, including dates, times, and descriptions of what happened.
Reach out to a local housing authority or a tenant rights organization for guidance tailored to your situation. They can help you understand the specific laws in your area and what steps you can take to address the issues. Additionally, consider speaking with a legal advisor who can provide you with personalized advice and support.
Taking these actions can help you protect your rights and improve your living situation. Remember, you don't have to handle this alone, and there are resources available to support you through this challenging time.
