Struggling with family issues like fighting or jealousy? Contact a hotline in Benin for confidential help

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 1 helplines in Benin if you're experiencing the following:

• Family conflicts with new step-parents, step-brothers, step-sisters or step-children.
• A sibling, parent or guardian who is absent physically or emotionally.
• Abuse or neglect from your parent, guardian, sibling or spouse.
• Job loss, financial struggles or gambling and the impact these can have on your family.
• Struggles with generational, cultural or religious differences within the family.
• Perfectionism, pressure or abuse from your parent, guardian, sibling or spouse.
• Drug, alcohol or gambling addiction and the impact this can have on your family.
• Problems caused by a lack of money for resources such as food, clothing and accommodation.

Experiencing problems at home is extremely challenging because it may feel like there is nowhere for you to escape to. When the people you live with are the source of your pain, home may no longer feel like a safe haven.

You may feel alone if you're experiencing family problems. You may think that nobody else has been through what you're going through and that nobody will relate. However, there are hotline volunteers and counselors in Benin who care about the challenges you're facing and want to help you.
