Self-Assessment Questions
Ask yourself these questions honestly to assess your relationship with gambling:
1. Do you gamble more than you planned?
If you frequently exceed your intended time or money limits, this could be a warning sign.
2. Do you gamble to win back losses?
Chasing losses often leads to bigger problems and is a key indicator of problem gambling.
3. Has gambling affected your relationships?
If gambling is causing arguments or affecting your personal relationships, seek help.
4. Do you lie about your gambling?
Hiding gambling activity from family or friends is often a sign of a developing problem.
5. Do you gamble when stressed or upset?
Using gambling as an escape mechanism can lead to dependency.
6. Have you tried to stop but couldn't?
Inability to control gambling behaviour indicates the need for professional support.
If you answered "yes" to any of these questions, consider using our responsible gaming tools or seeking professional help.

Set a Budget
Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Never use money needed for essentials.
Set Time Limits
Decide how long you'll play before you start and stick to it.
Don't Chase Losses
Accept losses as part of the game. Never try to win back money by betting more.
Don't Gamble Under Influence
Avoid gambling when drinking alcohol or taking drugs as this impairs judgment.
Keep It Balanced
Gambling should be just one form of entertainment, not your main activity.
Talk About It
Discuss your gambling with friends or family. Openness helps maintain control.
