Set Time Limits
Decide how long you'll play before starting. Use alarms or timers to remind yourself to take breaks. Gaming should fit into your life, not dominate it.

Follow these guidelines to keep gaming fun and safe
Decide how long you'll play before starting. Use alarms or timers to remind yourself to take breaks. Gaming should fit into your life, not dominate it.
Remember that Sehimilton is entertainment, not a way to make money or solve problems. Focus on enjoying the experience rather than outcomes.
Step away every 30-60 minutes. Stretch, hydrate, and give your mind a rest. Breaks help maintain perspective and keep gaming enjoyable.
If you're having an unlucky streak, don't keep playing to "win back" virtual credits. Reset your balance or take a break instead.
Gaming should be one of many activities you enjoy. Make sure you're maintaining relationships, work, hobbies, and other interests.
Pay attention to how gaming makes you feel. If you're playing to escape problems or feeling anxious, it might be time to step back.
Gaming should never replace real-world relationships. Keep connecting with friends and family, and don't isolate yourself.
Set winning and losing limits before you start. When you hit them, stop playing. Learning to walk away is an important skill.
Recognizing problematic gaming behavior early is crucial
Spending more time gaming than planned, losing track of time, or gaming when you should be working, studying, or spending time with loved ones.
Feeling irritable or anxious when not gaming, using gaming to escape problems or negative feelings, or mood swings related to gaming outcomes.
Being secretive about how much time you spend gaming, lying to friends or family about your gaming activities, or feeling guilty but continuing anyway.
Thinking about gaming constantly when not playing, planning your next session while doing other activities, or having difficulty focusing on non-gaming tasks.
Missing work, school, or important commitments due to gaming. Declining performance in professional or academic areas. Ignoring household chores or personal care.
Withdrawing from friends and family, choosing to game rather than engage in social activities, or experiencing relationship problems due to gaming.
Don't ignore them. Problem gaming behavior can develop gradually, and early intervention is important. Whether it's you or someone you care about, recognizing these warning signs is the first step toward getting help.
Remember: Seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness. Many people struggle with gaming habits, and professional support can make a real difference.

Learn MoreHelping young people develop healthy relationships with gaming
Sehimilton is strictly for players 18 years and older. Even though no real money is involved, the game simulates gambling mechanics that are not appropriate for minors.
Parents and guardians play a crucial role in protecting young people from exposure to gambling-style games. Here's how you can help:
Watch for changes in behavior, declining academic performance, social withdrawal, sleep disturbances, or becoming secretive about online activities.
If you're concerned about your child's gaming habits, seek professional guidance. Many counselors and therapists specialize in helping families navigate these challenges.
Tools and practices to support responsible gaming
Track your gaming sessions including time spent, how you felt before and after, and whether it interfered with other activities. This builds self-awareness.
Share your gaming habits with a trusted friend or family member. Having someone to check in with can help maintain accountability.
Invest time in other activities you enjoy - sports, music, reading, art, or socializing. A balanced life reduces dependence on any single activity.
Learn constructive ways to handle stress, boredom, or negative emotions instead of turning to gaming. Exercise, meditation, and creative outlets are great alternatives.
