Highs and lows, thrill and kills, you name it – web bingo offers all these and more. Like any other game where stakes are high, this heightened exhilaration has its own fair share of favorable and detrimental affect on the players.
Bingo- The Anxiety Attractant
The anticipation involved in a game of bingo can drive a person to the opposite side of the spectrum. Becoming too absorbed in the match, one’s excitement level could change; this might have an adverse effect on individuals who have high blood pressure or heart problems. Some studies indicate, individuals who play bingo are subject to get easily agitated and consequently have high-anxiety. It has been seen that job related anxiety is a whole lot lower than the stress created while playing bingo. There have been several instances of players having lost their jobs because of bingo-related anxiety affecting their proficiency at work.
In spite of the aforementioned risks, bingo can still be a great anxiety-buster if players acknowledge that it is just a game, be concerned with their well-being and constrain their behavior.
