Hi Lexi3texi3,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you're not able to enable iMessages, first try the troubleshooting tips in this article:

If you still can't "switch on" iMessages, I recommend backing up your iPhone and restoring the iOS software next:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

iTunes: Restoring iOS software

My iMessage slider turns off within 5 seconds of me turning it on.
