Is your home-life causing stress due to family problems? Contact a hotline in Gambia for support

Some families are more complicated than others. Separation, divorce, abuse, grief, financial strife and neglect are just a few of the family matters that could be causing you concern. You are never alone. If you are experiencing any of the following in your home or family life, there are 1 in Gambia where you can get the understanding and support that you need:

• Frequent yelling, screaming, bickering or fights within the 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.
• Job loss, financial struggles or gambling and the impact these can have on your family.
• Family members who don’t support you due to issues of trust, miscommunication or abuse.
• Stress in the family, caused by issues with housing, money or unemployment.
• Parents or siblings who argue, fight, bully or try to control each other and you.

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.

Family problems can be difficult to manage alone. You may feel like you have nobody to turn to for emotional support and guidance. Fortunately, helpline volunteers in Gambia are available to talk. No matter what you're going through, you can get private, free support from a volunteer who cares.
