If you’re worried about your gambling, you don’t have to wait for a crisis to ask for help.

Set limits that protect you

A simple plan that keeps gambling in the “entertainment” zone.

Back to tickets
Money limit
Decide before you start

Set a weekly or monthly amount you can afford to lose. Treat it like a movie ticket—once it’s spent, it’s gone.

Time limit
Stop when the timer ends

Set a time boundary. If you notice you’re thinking about gambling frequently, it’s a sign to step back.

No chasing losses

Trying to “win back” money can escalate harm quickly. If you feel the urge, pause and take a break.
