Can't turn off Stolen Device Protection on iPhone

I turned on the Stolen Device Protection on my Iphone 13 Pro after updating it to iOS 17.3 and my home wasn’t recognized as a familiar location. Because of that now I can’t access my Apple ID. What is weird is that the Face ID & Passcode option on Settings just disappeared, which is where you go to turn SDP off. What should I do to turn SDP off?

I’m having similar issue. It won’t recognize my Face ID but I not can’t access my passwords or anything and can’t turn it off as it doesn’t recognize my face. I’m at my literal home and it’s still not working. I went to Apple Store today and they said it would be fine once I got home and would be able to turn it off but I still can’t and can’t access passwords or other settings as it won’t recognize me! No one from Apple seems to be able to know what to do! I’m so frustrated as I just want to turn it off!
