Responsible Bingo Gambling
We all like to have a gamble every now and again and gambling can be great fun, but if you feel you are developing a gambling problem then the following web sites can offer you practical advice and help.
Someone who thinks they have a gambling problem should ask themselves the following questions…
- Have you ever lose time from work or education because you are gambling?
- Do you gamble to pay off debts?
- Have you ever gambled until all your money is gone?
- Do you borrow money to fund your gambling?
- Have you ever committed or considered committing a crime to fund your gambling?
- Do you ever neglect your family and friends to continue gambling?
Most compulsive gamblers will answer YES to at least FOUR of these questions - the sites below and offer advice and help for anyone who thinks they have a problem.
