Where can I find long sleeves with UV protection?

Actually, now that I am thinking... Where can I find hiking clothes in general? Like hiking pants and boots? And ideally for a not super high price?

But I really need a UV t-shirt, I just don't know where to look!!

How can I improve my communication skills?

I really suck at communication.

I am an introverted person, but I feel very at ease and open when among friends and partners. I do think a lot (A LOT), and I am curious about various things, so I do lots of short superficial research about topics that I find interesting.

BUT it is really REALLY hard for me to talk to people. And the reasons are:

- It's hard for me to formulate sentences / articulate my thoughts.

- I don't retain information about ANYTHING that I read/listen/see. Example: most recently, I spent a whole week reading a lot of Ayurveda stuff, listening to podcasts, youtube videos, etc... But then my partner asked me, 'oh, what is this Ayurveda thing?' I JUST COULD NOT EXPLAIN WHAT IT IS.

- English is my second language, so a lot of times I overthink my grammar/pronunciation.

(I was diagnosed with ADD and I used to take medication but I didn't see any difference so I stopped)

I got laid off and am looking for jobs now... And I cannot explain what I used to do at my old job. I do practice, I have a list of everything that I need to say during interviews, but I can't remember anything. And if I don't practice a lot beforehand, let's say right now someone asks what I used to do at work, my mind goes blank.

I thought about taking a Udemy/Coursera communication course, but I don't think they would help me!!!

So I would really like to hear from people in similar situations, what did you do to improve??? What can I do??? I hate being that way!!!
