    • Hiding gambling activity from family or friends
    • Neglecting work, studies, or relationships due to gambling
    • Borrowing money or selling items to fund gambling
    • Feeling irritable or anxious when trying to stop

Self-Assessment Test

Ask yourself the following:

  1. Have you ever felt you needed to bet more money to achieve the same excitement?
  2. Do you find it difficult to stop gambling once you start?
  3. Have you lied to those close to you about your gambling?
  4. Do you use gambling as a way to escape personal problems or stress?
  5. Have you tried unsuccessfully to reduce or control your gambling?

If you answer "yes" to one or more of these, consider seeking support or utilizing the responsible gaming tools offered by maple-casino on maple-ca.com.
