Services for substance abuse and gambling problems from one place
Published 6/5/2022
When drinking, drug use or gambling no longer seems to be under control, the natural solution is to search for information online. But it is easy to get lost on the Internet. It is hard to choose from hundreds of search results and decide which one to trust. Many can't even find what they are looking for because they don't know what the services are called.
Suomi.fi is the address you should start with
Suomi.fi is a web service that contains information on available services and the management of different life events. It also includes information regarding substance abuse and gambling problems.
The Problems with alcohol, drugs or gambling guide contains instructions
