Online gambling becomes more and more popular. However, the risks of experiencing major problems as a result of it is much higher compared to gambling in more traditional environments. This is because of several factors including 24/7 availability, gambling with "invisible" money (numbers on your gambling account), no effort necessary to start gambling (such as getting dressed, getting out of your house, walking/cycling/driving to a gambling location, getting cash, making up reasons to be away/excuses to your partner/family) etc).
If you are a gambler bin have never gambled online do not start with it at all.
If you are already gambling online be aware of these factors and try to but boundaries around these. For example: set times where you allow yourself to gamble, and if you don't stick to it then share your gambling habits with someone for more accountability.
