Verizon is blocking my sms

It appears that Verizon is blocking all sms from my personal number. I send texts to Verizon users but they never receive them. I get no indication that my texts are not being received. MMS messages (pictures and group messages) are able to be received by Verizon users without issue. I do not have this issue with any other carrier. Is there anything I can do to resolve this?

Hi Gilbert, thanks for responding and apologies for my delay. This issue has been happening for several months (almost a year). I have made no changes.I send texts to Verizon numbers and they never receive my texts. This happens for all Verizon numbers that I've tried including mvnos. Curiously, MMS messages are received without issue. I've tried several different phones to see if it was a device issue but the problem still persits. Calls are received without issue. No other problems to report. Thanks for any help!!
