Did liquid ever get on your calculator? Have the batteries ever corroded inside? Check the backup battery as well.
Do you have a multimeter? It's going to be basically impossible to figure out what exactly is broken unless you can spot the problem visually.

I do have a multi meter I took it apart it turned on at one point I saw it I don’t think it ever got wet internally but it did externally

This symptom often is due to a failure of the coarse ribbon cable connecting the LCD and the calculator's mainboard: you can try to narrow down the problem by using a link cable (if this is a TI-83 Plus, the USB-to-2.5mm cord called the SilverLink) to see if TI Connect can view the contents of the calculator. If so, it's just an LCD problem; if not, it's likely a more pervasive and serious problem.

So if it is should I just get rid of it?
It's entirely up to you; I would certainly suggest trying to repair it, but everyone has a different level of skill (and patience) for repairs. Many of the things we've been discussing in this thread are fixable: - Coarse LCD ribbon cable problems: https://www.cemetech.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5161
- Keypad corrosion from battery leakage: cleaning corrosion and patching destroyed traces with wire.
