Risk Awareness
Gambling, while enjoyable for many, carries inherent risks. It is important to recognize signs that may indicate a potential gambling problem or addiction. These signs include, but are not limited to:
- Frequently placing bets or increasing the amount wagered beyond personal limits.
- Spending a disproportionate amount of time thinking about gambling or planning when and how to gamble.
- Neglecting personal, professional, or social responsibilities due to gambling activities.
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to stop or reduce gambling.
- Chasing losses or gambling to relieve negative emotions such as stress or anxiety.
- Borrowing money or relying on others to continue gambling.
To help identify risky behavior, you may consider the following self-assessment statements. Reflect honestly on whether these apply to you:
- Do you often gamble longer or for higher stakes than you originally intended?
- Do you find gambling interfering with your daily life or responsibilities?
- Have you tried to cut down or stop gambling but were unsuccessful?
- Do you feel anxious or restless when not gambling?
- Have you hidden or lied about your gambling habits to family or friends?
If you answer "yes" to one or more of these questions, it is advisable to consider using the responsible gaming tools offered or to seek professional support.
