Covid-19 got me looking to play dnd

So here's the thing. I really wanna play dnd. The whole situation has got me so so depressed. I can't hang out with friends, I'm sick of watching shows I've already watched with my parents, anxiety is really getting to me, and the best part? I got dropped from a job I was going to be starting on Monday. So bang goes my money. I was already unemployed for 3 months and grafted super hard for this job so this news has me really shook.  I appreciate that on this format it's nice to pay your GM and honestly, under any other circumstances, I would LOVE to be doing that and I honestly wish I had while I was still earning. However, right now, I have 0 money to spare if I want to pay my bills for my next few very unemployed months. But I REEEEALLY wanna play dnd. I'm a UK 5e player and have been for 2 and a bit years now. I'm in two games at the minute but only one is currently running (online) and I'e played quite a few more. I'm happy to do one off's or long term and I have a whole array of characters already built and ready to go, using all kinds of content. I'm only new to this platform but I'm a fast learner... Pretty please reply if you're a super cool DM, or another player in a similar situation and let's sort something out!

I'm in the same exact boat! My university and my job closed, and one of my DnD groups just canceled the campaign altogether. I've never tried playing DnD online but this virus has me trying desperate measures. I haven't been able to find a game to play in yet but I'm looking...

Are you UK based? Sorry to hear that though. Sucks... I hate this situation lol

I'm in the US! My whole state's pretty much been shut down as it's gotten nasty here. I've been social distancing for like 4 or 5 days and I feel like I'm going crazy with boredom. Blehh

Its a rough time for everyone and sorry to hear your both going through losing jobs that's never easy. Roll20 isn't to hard to learn and if either of you need help getting the basics I'd be glad to help. I'm fairly experienced with the platform and getting back into running games due to this whole situation etc help people be distracted and also just get back into a hobby I really enjoy. I have a discord server with friends its fairly small, but considering the situation I'm looking to probably expand it and get games up and running for different groups. There are people from both the UK and the US. So feel free to message and I'll give you my discord info etc. Good luck to both of you either way and stay safe!
