My Self-Texts are Disappearing. Please HELP

My Self-Texts are Disappearing. HELP

I often send texts to myself on my iPhone as a way to set up reminders. I may text myself one or several times a day and my text folder keeps a running log of all the texts....or, at least it used to. Lately messages that are about 9 days old and older are eliminated. It looks like my phone doesn't delete running texts to or from other people, but it seems to be deleting those texts I send to my own number on my phone. FYI - I checked settings and the “Keep messages forever” toggle is set to keep them forever. I’ve powered down and updated. Happening on iPad and iPhone. I need my messages back!
