Accidentally deleted all of my messages

I've accidentally deleted all of my text messages, I was meant to delete one spam but accidentally deleted everything in the inbox. Is there any way I can retrieve them? I didnt have the text message app backed up, stupid I know, seriously hating myself right now.Sad

I had some really lovely messages from people that are no longer here and people who are no longer a part of my life. I would often look back and read the message when I need a bit of comfort. It's ruined my evening and its giving me that sickening feeling in the pit of my stomach.

I'd really appreciate it if anyone could help with some advice.

Not really an AIBU but AIBU or should I let go and move on with my life.

I’ve no idea how to get them back sorry but I’m just thinking maybe you can write down what you remember asap and then at the very least you have something to look back over. You might not remember what you remember now in a couple of years. Hope someone more technical might help you though x

If you have an iphone, you could restore your phone to the last back up you did?
I don’t know if it works on android

You could look in Google Drive to see if your messages have been backed up. You may have allowed it to back up without realising. Google Drive>three lines menu>backups>messages

@Lougle it looks like everything apart from SMS has been backed. It doesn't allow me to click on it. Also it says it was backed 9 hours ago, I deleted the messages about 6 hours ago so surely it should still be backed somewhere Sad
