Maintaining control

Most people gamble within their means, but for some it can be more difficult. In order to maintain control of your gambling habits we would like you to keep in mind the following points:
• Gambling should be done in moderation and undertaken as a form of leisure not as a genuine way of making money
• Avoid chasing losses
• Only gamble when you can cover the losses
• Keep track of the time and monitor the amount of money you spend
• Choose to limit how much money you can stake during a calendar week.
• Should you need a break from gambling then contact us at admin@baysbet.com

If you are concerned that gambling has had a negative impact on yours or someone else's life then the following questions may help you find out.
• Does gambling prevent you from attending work, college or school?
• Do you gamble to pay debts or solve financial difficulties?
• Do you gamble to pass time?
• Do you gamble until you lose all your money?
• Have you ever lied to cover up the amount of money and time you spend gambling?
• Have you lied, stolen or borrowed to maintain betting habits?
• Are you reluctant to spend gambling money on anything else?
• Have you lost interest in family, friends and other hobbies?
• After a win, do you have a strong urge to try and win more?
• Do you prefer to gamble than spend time with your family or friends?
• After losing, do you feel you have to try and win back those losses as soon as possible?
• Do arguments, frustrations or disappointments make you want to gamble?
• Do you ever feel depressed or consider harming yourself as a result of your gambling?
• Does gambling cause you to have difficulty in sleeping?

People with a compulsive gambling problem are likely to answer YES to some of these questions. If you need more help we strongly advise you to visit one of the following organisations, non-Company related:

GAMBLING ADDICTION

If you recognize that you may have a problem with gambling, talk with your health care provider about an evaluation or seek help from a mental health professional. Child Help-Line: IS a platform that is dedicated to providing free, compassionate and confidential support over phone and text message (SMS), you can visit the link below to talk to professionals from CHILD HELP LINE. https://findahelpline.com/

To evaluate your problem with gambling, your health care provider or mental health provider will likely:
• Ask questions related to your gambling habits. Your provider may also ask for permission to speak with family members or friends. However, confidentiality laws prevent your provider from giving out any information about you without your consent.
• Review your medical information. Some drugs can have a rare side effect that results in compulsive behaviours, including gambling, in some people. A physical exam may identify problems with your health that are sometimes associated with compulsive gambling.
• Do a mental health assessment. This assessment includes questions about your symptoms, thoughts, feelings and behaviours patterns related to your gambling. Depending on your signs and symptoms, you may be evaluated for mental health disorders that are sometimes related to excessive gambling.

Treatment Treating compulsive gambling can be challenging. That's partly because most people have a hard time admitting they have a problem. Yet a major part of treatment is working on acknowledging that you're a compulsive gambler.

If your family or your employer pressured you into therapy, you may find yourself resisting treatment. But treating a gambling problem can help you regain a sense of control — and possibly help heal damaged relationships or finances.

Treatment for compulsive gambling may include these approaches:

• Therapy. Behavioural therapy or cognitive behavioural therapy may be helpful. Behavioural therapy uses a process of exposure to the behaviour you want to unlearn and teaches you skills to reduce your urge to gamble. Cognitive behavioural therapy focuses on identifying unhealthy, irrational and negative beliefs and replacing them with healthy, positive ones. Family therapy also may be helpful.
• Medications. Antidepressants and mood stabilizers may help treat problems that often go along with compulsive gambling — such as bipolar disorder or r, depression or anxiety. Some antidepressants may be effective in reducing gambling behaviour. Medications called narcotic antagonists, useful in treating substance misuse, may help treat compulsive gambling.
• Self-help groups. Some people find that talking with others who have a gambling problem may be a helpful part of treatment. Ask your health care provider or mental health provider for advice on self-help groups, such as Gamblers Anonymous and other resources.
