Twitter account has been suspended

Got suspended once for calling a politician an unsavoury word. lasted about 12 hours

Is it really that life-changing if you can't use Twitter any longer? The way you've written this, I thought someone had died!

How did you get your account back?

They gave me an option to remove the offending tweet. Wasn't happy about it but I did it

Well you're lucky! I really hope they get back to me and give me an option todo that also. Even though I'm pretty aware that none of tweets are offensive.

Mine was offensive (well...) but meh I see worse go unpunished all the time

I did it anyway just so I could get access back. I hope you get sorted

I feel like crying, my twitter account has been suspended. Apparently for "Violating the rules against platform manipulation and spams" how so? When my latest tweet was about how excited I am for Spotify Wrapped.
The reason why I'm so mad about this, is because I've had this account for 8 years and built up many memories, created friends and reached a larger audience of followers. I accumulated 200,000 followers (real followers, and the account followed 135,000 back)
I have written a couple of appeals to Twitter and provided an explanation of why I have not misused the Twitter service. I even tried to make another account earlier which also lead to suspension. I just want my twitter account back that I've worked so hard for, it's really disrupting me and I've accepted for what it is.
I just hope with all the evidence I have provided it will give Twitter the rights to unsuspend my account.
I'm really annoyed by this and I'm praying that they do give me my account.
I just want to know if anyone has been in a similar situation and managed to get their account back?
Please help!

boo hoo, cry me a river. The way you phrased this sounded as if your mother had died. Grow up and stop overreacting.

Sounds like you did too much aggressive following and got caught in their automated systems. Normally takes 7 days for them to get to it once you've logged an appeal. Ideally you'll have apologised in your appeal for violating their rules. But assuming you weren't actually spamming people they'll unsuspend you and all your tweets and followers will still be there.
Make use of the 7 days to maybe find something else to do that has a bit more of a long-term benefit to you? The suspension of your twitter account should really not be impacting your health, the fact it has suggests you need to take a step back.

I haven't followed a huge amount of people actively like that. As I've had the account for a long time I've just followed as I progressed, I don't just follow random people at every day and at every second. It was just something that I'd do occasionally and it happened in instalments during the 8 years of my time on Twitter (if you understand). So it will take 7 days for them to respond? I really hope they unsuspend me because all of my actions made on twitter are never intentionally to affect or offend anyone. I don't have anything else todo but just watch my casual youtubers. It's unfortunate that its lead to this way as the people on my Twitter really made my life a bit better especially for all the things I've gone through personally.. and it's really annoying. It's good in a way to give me time to reflect but it's going to take me some time to really adjust ..

following 135k accounts over 8 years is 45 a day. If you're keeping up that kind of following rate but in batches and perhaps unfollowing at the same time, you're very likely to trigger their aggressive following alerts.

Okay I get it now. What about the 7 days thing? I'm I expected to get a response from Twitter and if so do you know what they could possibly/likely say? I'm so lost for words..

Yes you'll get a response, although their decision is final. It's likely to take about 7 days but it entirely depends upon how many others have been caught by the automated system and also appealed in the same timeframe. Could take longer, could be quicker (unlikely to be less than 2). You can't call them to speed up that appeal, although if you don't already have a phone number attached to your account and you can still access your settings, add one and go through the verify process as it will help convince them you aren't a bot.
Hopefully that real person will see you weren't trying to spam and will unsuspend your account. If you've been nice in your appeal it will help, if you've been rude it won't.
Ideally once you're back live again, start gently reducing your following - 135k is too many really to make twitter consider your account a quality one. And maybe read their rules?
