I am trying to have asteroids in my game bounce off the edge of my screen and I have got it working decently, but after a few bounces, the asteroid/object gets "stuck" in the wall and glitches out the playing area.
Am I going about this wrong? I cannot see where in the code its making the asteroids stuck after a couple of bounces.Thanks in advance :)

You must fix your object's position to bounce inside the screen, if your object is already outside of the screen and it does not fully enter in screen space in the next frame, then your object is changing it's direction infinitely until it enters or leaves the screen.
Change this:
if (gameObject.transform.position.y >= TopScreenBound.y)
{
direction.y *= -1;
}
if (gameObject.transform.position.y <= BottomScreenBound.y)
{
direction.y *= -1;
}
To this:
if (gameObject.transform.position.y >= TopScreenBound.y)
{
gameObject.transform.position.y = TopScreenBound.y;
direction.y *= -1;
}
if (gameObject.transform.position.y <= BottomScreenBound.y)
{
gameObject.transform.position.y = BottomScreenBound.y;
direction.y *= -1;
}
