Do you or someone you know have a gambling problem? Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you need to bet large amounts or spend a lot of time gambling to feel excited?
- Are you spending more time and money on gambling than before?
- Do you find it hard to stop gambling after a loss or try to win back lost money?
- Have you used money meant for other things, borrowed, or sold assets to gamble?
- Is gambling causing you financial issues like unpaid bills or missed payments?
- Do you lie about or hide your gambling? Does this make you feel guilty?
- Is gambling affecting your work, studies, or relationships?
- Is gambling affecting your mental or physical health, causing stress or anxiety?
- Have others told you that you gamble too much, even if you don't agree?
- Do you think you might have a gambling problem?
If you answered ‘Yes’ to any of the questions, we recommend that you seek further assistance. You can take the Gamcare Self-Assessment which clarifies which steps to take.
