Reloading trashed history files

After a long long day working on a large photoshop file with multiple layers, I cropped the a small part of the whole file which I was wanting to work on as a separate file. However, instead of saving this as a copy I accidentally saved over the original photoshop file. Then (and dont ask me how I managed this one) I closed the file without really realising I had saved over the original file.

When i managed to get my histeria under control I opened the now saved over file (now a very small file size). THe layer pallete looks the same as before I cropped it - with all the original layers still there - but as I have cropped to a very small part of the original image I can only see what is in the now cropped image.

Is there any way that I can back the history list, so that I can regain the original file, or any other way that I can get back my original file??

I imagine this is not possible, but I am not able to deal with the prospect of having to start from scratch all over again!

Any help would be much appreciated!

Sorry to say that unless you saved a back up somewhere, you lost the original file. When in doubt, deny all terms and defnitions.
