If you use Gmail, check the inbox of the recovery email address you provided when you signed up for Gmail. If you didn't provide a recovery email address, you can try another way to recover your account. You'll be asked some questions to confirm it's your account. Answer as best you can.

On your computer, go to Gmail. Enter your Google Account email or phone number and password. If information is already filled in and you have to sign in to a different account, click Use another account. If you get a page that describes Gmail instead of the sign-in page, at the top right of the page, click Sign in.

After you select Forgot password and enter your username, we offer you recovery options in order to access your account. If you can't access these recovery options, you can click the link at the bottom of the page to verify your identity. You'll then be given a series of questions to verify that you own the account.
