Call LifelineBetStop — the national self-exclusion register
Register once and every licensed Australian bookmaker must block you for the period you choose, from three months up to life. It is exactly what the seven-day break in tibbi is a rehearsal for.
Choose the national online register or the ACT program for venue-based exclusion.
Free financial counselling
National Debt Helpline · 1800 007 007. Use it when the problem has become debt, overdue bills or calls from creditors.
Free, independent, and they do not sell financial products.

This is an education and early-intervention tool. It is not treatment, it is not counselling, and there is nobody on duty here. If you need more than a 60-second lesson, the numbers above are the right place.
