Answer the questions below honestly. If you answer "yes" to three or more questions, we encourage you to contact our support team or make use of the self-control tools.
Have you ever played with money that should have been used for daily necessities such as rent, food, or bills?
Do you often feel the need to play longer or place larger bets to get the same level of excitement?
Have you ever tried to stop playing but failed, or felt restless when not playing?
Do you play to escape from problems, stress, or feelings of sadness?
Have your loved ones ever expressed concern about your gaming habits?
Do you often chase losses hoping to win back money you have already lost?
Gambling problems rarely appear out of nowhere. They usually develop gradually. Recognise these signs before they become serious:
Thinking about playing all the time — if your thoughts frequently drift to gaming even while doing other activities, this is a warning sign.
Hiding gaming activity — if you find yourself lying to family or friends about how much time or money you have spent.
Growing debt — borrowing money to play or being unable to repay debts because the money was spent on gaming.
Neglecting responsibilities — work, family, or other responsibilities are neglected due to excessive time spent gaming.
Significant Mood Swings — feeling highly excited while playing but becoming depressed, irritable, or anxious when unable to play.
