Google terminated my YouTube channel even thought I made no videos or used it

This is really weird. Google requires everyone to make a youtube channel before they can use youtube. Everything has been going fine for years and now somehow my channel, which never had a video and I was not even aware existed, was terminated and now I cannot use youtube at all. Appealing failed. This make no sense. how can I lose my channel when I never used it? Is there anyway to recover my channel subscriptions or use youtube without the channel?
