Responsible Gaming & Gambling Addiction Treatment | LaFortunaBR.com
Hello and welcome. I’m Gabriel Matias, the person behind LaFortunaBR.com. While I’m passionate about exploring and reviewing the best online casinos in Brazil, I also believe it’s my duty to encourage healthy, responsible gaming behavior.
Online gambling can be fun, exciting, and even rewarding—but only when done in moderation. For some, it can become more than just entertainment. If you or someone you know is struggling, this page is here to help.
My Commitment to Safe and Responsible Gaming
At LaFortunaBR.com, I support responsible gaming as a core value. This means:
- Promoting platforms that offer self-exclusion tools, deposit limits, and cool-off periods
- Never glorifying gambling as a solution to financial problems
- Encouraging players to stay in control of their time and money
- Providing resources and support for those who may need help
You deserve to play safely. Your mental well-being will always be more important than any casino bonus or game.
Signs of Gambling Addiction
Problem gambling can sneak up on anyone. Here are a few warning signs to look out for:
- You find it hard to stop playing, even after losses
- You hide gambling habits from friends or family
- You borrow money to continue playing
- You feel anxious, restless, or depressed when not gambling
- You gamble to escape stress or emotional problems
- You’re spending more time and money than you can afford
If any of these apply to you—or someone you care about—it might be time to seek support.
How to Gamble Responsibly
Here are some practical steps I always recommend to stay in control:
- Set a time and spending limit before you start playing
- Never chase losses—that often leads to deeper financial problems
- Only gamble with money you can afford to lose
- Take breaks regularly and avoid long playing sessions
- Don’t gamble when you’re upset, tired, or intoxicated
- Use responsible gaming tools offered by most licensed casinos
Tools for Self-Control
Most legitimate online casinos I feature on this site offer built-in tools like:
- Deposit Limits – Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on how much you can spend
- Session Limits – Control how long you play
- Reality Checks – Get reminders to take a break
- Self-Exclusion – Temporarily or permanently block yourself from playing
- Account Closure – Request full account termination
These features are designed to help you stay in control. Use them when needed—they’re signs of strength, not weakness.
