Refugio Munich cares for refugees with psychological problems.
Some people often feel bad. One reason could be psychological problems.
These can be signs:
- You can’t fall asleep or are often awake for a long time at night.
- You have bad dreams.
- You have experienced bad things. The memory of them hurts a lot.
- You often have headaches.
- You can’t concentrate.
- You often forget things.
- Sometimes you get very angry. Then you become loud and aggressive. In these situations you cannot control yourself well.
- You have no strength to do things. Everything is difficult for you. You would prefer to do nothing at all.
- You do not enjoy life and beautiful things.
Do you have one or more of these problems? Are the reasons for your problems bad experiences in your home country or on the run? For example, war or torture?
Then you should seek for help. For example at Refugio Munich.
You can undergo psychotherapy at Refugio. During psychotherapy, you can talk about your problems. We think together: What helps you with your problems? You can always talk to us in therapy in your mother tongue.
You can call Refugio and ask your questions on the phone.
We have a counseling phone, every Monday from 10-12 or Thursday from 14-16: 089/9829570.
