Messages Not Working 2017 MacBook Pro Ventura 13.6.6

Messages refuses to load. App stops responding, cannot open messages, check or reply to anything on 2017 MacBook Pro running Ventura 13.6.6. It works on my iPad, iPhone, and older iMac desktop at work, but my personal laptop is refusing to launch the app. I keep reporting it when force quitting, and restarting does not fix the issue. Not using any third party apps or anything. Simply trying to get messages to work properly again. Anyone have a fix for this?
