Is your family too complicated to live with? Free helplines are available in Italy

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 5 helplines in Italy if you're experiencing the following:

  • Family members who don’t support you due to issues of trust, miscommunication or abuse.
  • Struggles with generational, cultural or religious differences within the family.
  • Co-dependency, in which a family member relies on you for emotional, mental or physical support.
  • Perfectionism, pressure or abuse from your parent, guardian, sibling or spouse.
  • Personality clashes, arguments and fights in your family.
  • Family members who depend on you for things they cannot do for themselves.
  • Problems caused by a lack of money for resources such as food, clothing and accommodation.
  • Problems such as consistent rivalry, mistrust or personality clashes between any of your family members.

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 Italy. You can speak to a crisis line counselor and get free, confidential support whenever you're ready.
