I just accidentally deleted a long-standing “conversation” with myself through which I sent myself some important information, websites, pictures, etc. Is there any possible way to restore these texts?!!! I really need some of that data and hope I have not lost it forever. Thanks for your help or suggestions.

Hello SJGACG,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities, and it's understandable to want to receive those messages.
The only way to retrieve them if you aren't using iCloud for Messages would be to restore a previous backup that had the conversations. Just remember, this will revert the iPhone to the state it was in when the backup was created: Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup
If you use iCloud for Messages or there isn't a backup before this happened, there would be no other way to retrieve those messages.
Have a great day.
