Recognizing Problem Gambling (Warning Signs)
It is important to be aware of the signs that may indicate a gambling problem. Here are some common warning signs:
- Feeling the need to gamble with increasing amounts of money.
- Becoming restless or irritable when attempting to cut down on gambling.
- Gambling to escape from problems or to relieve feelings of helplessness.
- Chasing losses by gambling more.
- Lying to family or friends about the extent of gambling.
Self-Assessment Tools/Questions
To help you evaluate your gambling habits, consider the following questions:
- Do you often gamble more than you can afford to lose?
- Have you ever felt the need to hide your gambling from others?
- Do you feel anxious or stressed about your gambling?
- Have you experienced any negative impacts on your personal or professional life due to gambling?
Setting Personal Limits
We encourage players to set personal limits to help manage their gambling activities. You can set limits on:

- Loss: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose.
- Time: Limit the amount of time you spend playing.

Reality Checks and Session Reminders
To help you stay aware of your gambling activities, we offer reality checks and session reminders. These tools will notify you of how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered, helping you to maintain control over your gaming experience.
