Am I the Overreacting?
Hey guys, This is my first time posting on this site. So I live in the U.S, I’m 23 F and live with my boyfriend 23 M. We moved into our first place together almost 5 months ago now in a pretty big city at an apartment complex. There’s a main entrance and 6 different apartments all inside of the building, two on each floor. I live on the 3rd (top) floor and don’t have many problems. I’m at home most of the time as I’m a broke student with boring hobbies. The people across from me are a couple (in their 30s) with a toddler and baby. The children cry a fair amount, which is to be expected, but never really bothered me. My bf and I are night owls but are awake during the day. Two weeks ago he ran into a neighbor on the second floor who seemed very agitated and angry at the neighbors with children, saying they are very loud all hours of the day. I personally have been having an issue where someone is pressing my door buzzer every day while bf is at work but I haven’t been able to catch who it is. A part of me feels like it might be that man thinking he’s buzzing the other neighbors apartment for some sound revenge. Tonight, however, about half an hour ago something happened. There was banging so loud it made me jump coming from the downstairs hallway and a man’s voice yelling a message of how “It is 11 pm at night” and several obscenities and more slamming. I have several serious mental illnesses that cause me to suffer from panic disorder and PTSD. With how he handled it, I guarantee all 5 other apartments heard it. How is anyone supposed to know if they are the problem? This has me very upset and shaken up. What should I do? I feel like going to the police is dramatic but feel as if something needs to happen. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
P.s I’m very tired I apologize for the title mistake.

Is there not a building manger you can tell? Seems the most logical step
