Self-Assessment

To assist players in identifying early signs of problematic gambling behavior, Cleobetra encourages self-reflection through the following structured questions:

Do you often gamble with money you cannot afford to lose?
Have you ever felt the need to chase losses?
Do you find yourself gambling for longer than you intended?
Have you experienced feelings of distress or anxiety related to your gambling?
Do you prioritize gambling over personal relationships or responsibilities?
Have you ever lied to others about your gambling activities?
Do you feel a sense of excitement or a rush when gambling that you do not feel in other areas of life?

Answering these questions honestly can help players recognize potential issues early and take appropriate action.
