Is family life making you unhappy, anxious or afraid? Contact a hotline in Slovakia for free, confidential 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 4 in Slovakia where you can get the understanding and support that you need:

• Stress in the family, caused by issues with housing, money or unemployment.
• Frequent conflicts about everyday things and differences of opinion, beliefs or behaviour.
• Co-dependency, in which a family member relies on you for emotional, mental or physical support.
• Money problems, unemployment, poverty and the many impacts these can have on your family.
• Family conflicts with new step-parents, step-brothers, step-sisters or step-children.
• Drug, alcohol or gambling addiction and the impact this can have on your family.
• A parent or sibling who suffers from addiction, mental illness, illness or disability.
• A sibling, parent or guardian who is absent physically or emotionally.

Family problems can be complicated. When different personalities are forced to live together under one roof, there's bound to be conflict. For some families, the conflict is severe and it can leave you feeling trapped, like you're living in a prison rather than a loving home.

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 Slovakia who care about the challenges you're facing and want to help you.
