Hey everyone! I recently tried to log into my Google account, but I got a message saying my session expired. I have my password written down, but it says it's incorrect. I tried using Google Authenticator and phone verification, but now it says that a link to log in will be sent to the email I want to recover. The problem is, I can't access that email. Can someone help me figure out how to handle this situation?

It sounds frustrating! Just hang in there. Usually, when you try to recover your account, they will send the reset link to your recovery email, which you should have set up before. Make sure you check that email instead.
Yeah, it's a bit tricky. The link should ideally go to your recovery email, not the account you're locked out of. Check if you set a different email for recovery during the setup. If you didn’t, you might be in a tough spot.
I didn't set up a recovery email... I'm really stuck now. Any other ideas?
I might not have been clear. The recovery link is being sent to the email I lost access to, not my recovery email. That's the issue here!
