Hi Laura! This is Raech, and I'm an Independent Advisor. I'm very sorry to hear this.
I wish I have an alternative to give. Unfortunately, the only way to recover your account is through the account recovery form. If you have not signed in to the account for at least two years, the account may be due for closing, as stated in Microsoft's Activity policy.

Please do note that this is a public user-to-user community forum. None of us here work for Microsoft and as such cannot assist directly with login-related issues.
Sincerely,
Raech C.
