Can't DM My Bot But Other People Can

I often send DMs to my bot as it is an easy way for me to keep notes of things, but lately I've found that the messages aren't being sent.

Other people who send a DM to the bot get a message back saying that the bot isn't programmed to respond to such messages, but when I try it I get 'Your message could not be delivered. This is usually because you don't share a server with the recipient or the recipient is only accepting direct messages from friends.'

client.on('messageCreate', async message => {
    
    if (message.channel.type == '1')
    {
        if (message.author.id != <BOT ID> && message.author.id != <MY ID>)
        {
            client.users.send(message.author.id, '**ERROR:** This bot is not programmed to receive Direct Messages.');
            await client.guilds.cache.get("SERVER ID").channels.cache.get("CHANNEL ID").send('Received a Direct Message\n\n**MESSAGE CONTENT:** ' + message.content + '\n**SENT BY:** ' + message.author.username + '\n**USER ID:** ' + message.author.id) // Make a note of the message content, JIC.
        }
    }
})

client.on('messageCreate', async message => {
    
    if (message.channel.type == '1')
    {
        if (message.author.id != <BOT ID> && message.author.id != <MY ID>)
        {
            client.users.send(message.author.id, '**ERROR:** This bot is not programmed to receive Direct Messages.');
            await client.guilds.cache.get("SERVER ID").channels.cache.get("CHANNEL ID").send('Received a Direct Message\n\n**MESSAGE CONTENT:** ' + message.content + '\n**SENT BY:** ' + message.author.username + '\n**USER ID:** ' + message.author.id) // Make a note of the message content, JIC.
        }
    }
})

Not really sure why this is happening. Have I overlooked or missed something?
