Is there a way to unlock it without erasing your phone? I don’t have anything to restore it from. I know my passcode but my phone is messed up and likes to type on it’s own sometimes. So it typed my passcode too many times and now I’m locked out.

iPhone X, iOS 15

Unfortunately no, once its disabled or unavailable, there is no way to unlock it and keep your data.
