Do Not Disturb - Always On

I have Ventura on a MacBook Air and my Do Not Disturb is always on. How do I turn it off? Neither "Focus" or "Do Not Disturb" is listed in Notifications with my other apps in Settings.


In the Focus Settings, Do Not Disturb is on and there is no way to toggle it off. Also in the Focus Settings, there is not a "Focus" set up. Focus status is "Off".


Focus is not shared across any of my devices.

Is your date and time faded out on the menubar?
