Talking helps
“I don’t feel well. I’m so alone,” says the 80-year-old, who has been sitting alone in her apartment for 10 days. – That’s what the staff at the telephone counselling service are hearing a lot these days. –
A young woman comes forward who can hardly stand it in the confined four walls with her husband and children now and is afraid of her husband’s beatings.
And a 35-year-old calls who is put on short time and doesn’t know how to keep his loved ones afloat now.
You can call the telephone counselling service around the clock and talk about whatever is on your mind. Without giving your name, free of charge.
At the other end are volunteers, competently trained – people who listen and take seriously what moves you.
Call. Call the toll-free numbers 0800 111 0111 and 0800 111 0 222.
It’s good to talk and to have someone who listens and wants to understand.
