is Apple preventing my phone number from syncing with my apple account?

i am unable to receive msynced messages on my iphone and mac studio. The iphone will not allow me to select my phone number as one of the apple account's email's and phone numbers. it says its unavailable for sharing. i have tried every option i can find online to get them to sync, but nothing has worked. i'm beginning to think that apple has blocked my phone number

Contact Apple Support, as they can see into your Apple Account, and we cannot.
