Family problems can be difficult to cope with. Personality clashes and communication breakdowns hurt the most when they happen at home. Whether you’re struggling with family-based abuse, trauma, tension, addiction or even parents who demand perfection, you are not alone. Take the first step and contact one of 6 helplines in Austria if you're experiencing the following:

• Job loss, financial struggles or gambling and the impact these can have on your family.
• Family members who ask too much of you or depend on you for support.
• Problems caused by a lack of money for resources such as food, clothing and accommodation.
• Serious family issues such as divorce, addiction, loss of a family member, or sexual abuse.
• Stress in the family, caused by issues with housing, money or unemployment.
• Perfectionism, pressure or abuse from your parent, guardian, sibling or spouse.
• Frequent conflicts about everyday things and differences of opinion, beliefs or behaviour.
• A parent or sibling who suffers from addiction, mental illness, illness or disability.

Without a warm, loving and safe home to return to at the end of the day, life can seem cold, dark and lonely. Home may not feel like home at all to you. Feeling like you need to avoid your family at all costs can be a horrible position to be in.

If your problems at home are following you out the door, you're not alone. Many people who experience family conflict find it difficult to cope. The good news is that help is available in Austria. You can speak to a crisis line counselor and get free, confidential support whenever you're ready.
