Notifications not working

So I’m having an issue with the Notification Center not opening. I have everything on. I have forwarding from my phone. It used to work, then it stopped. Software updates are up to date. When I click the 3 bars on the mac for notification. It doesn’t open. How can I get it to work?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.13
