How do I stop receiving duplicate text?

How do I stop receiving duplicate text when I text something to myself. I have an iPhone XR and there’s no rhyme or reason to when happens. Sometimes sends duplicate copy when I text something to myself and sometimes not. This doesn’t happen when I send or receive text from others. Only myself. Is there a way to turn something off to stop this?

iPhone XR, iOS 15

Probably you have multiple devices using the same Apple ID and have turned "Text Message Forwarding" On

Use separate Apple ID. Alternatively,

Disable text message forwarding

On your iPhone, go to Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding.
Disable the devices which is reading your texts
