Tips for Effective Limit Setting
- Be honest with yourself about how much time and money you can afford to spend on gambling
- Set limits before you start gambling, not during a session when judgment may be impaired
- Consider all expenses when determining your gambling budget (bills, savings, necessities)
- Start conservative - you can always adjust limits if they're too restrictive
- Remember that increases to limits typically take 24 hours or more to take effect, while decreases are immediate
- Use multiple limit types together for the most effective control
