Stay in Control
Gambling should be a leisure activity, not a means of income. Misuse can result in emotional and financial damage. To enjoy gambling responsibly, we advise:
- Stop when the fun stops. Remember, it’s a leisure activity, not employment.
- Don’t chase losses; there’s always another day.
- Bet only what you can afford to lose.
- Monitor your gambling time and expenditure.
- If you struggle to control your gambling, contact support for a possible temporary account suspension for a cooling-off period.
- For addiction help, seek assistance from the professional organizations listed below.
Losing Control?
If gambling negatively affects your life, consider these questions:
- Has gambling interfered with your work or studies?
- Do you gamble out of boredom?
- Has anyone expressed concern about your gambling?
- Is gambling affecting your relationships?
- Have you lied about your gambling spendings?
- Have you ever stolen to fund your gambling?
- Are you sacrificing necessities to gamble more?
- Do you continue gambling until you lose all your money?
- Do you feel compelled to win back losses immediately?
- Do you gamble to escape sadness or depression?
- Have you felt despondent or considered suicide after losing?
Affirmative answers may indicate a gambling issue, and we urge you to think about stopping gambling or seeking professional guidance.
