Taking a look at your gambling habits from time to time gives you a chance to reconsider them, and to prevent any issues from becoming problems. You can ask yourself the following questions to figure out how important gaming for you is, and how reasonable it is to proceed with such activities.

1. Have my gambling habits affected my job or my relationship in any way?
2. Is it usual for me to play until there is no money left?
3. Does it look reasonable for me to lie to others about how much money I spend on gambling activities?
4. Have I sold any property or borrowed any money from other people to keep playing, or to help me get through the month after a huge loss?
5. Do I try to win back the money I lost, even though this appeared to be unreasonable?
6. Have I ever played under the influence of alcohol or any other substances?
7. Do I tend to increase my gambling budget and session duration in order to keep myself excited?
8. Have I already tried to restrain myself from gambling?
9. Do I spend a lot of time thinking about gambling?
10. Do I gamble to make myself feel happier?
