Android Central Question

I have a Galaxy s9 and the google account for the phone is a yahoo email

Today I signed into a friend's gmail account using the gmail app and it has completely messed up my account.

Without ever going to the google setting it logged me into that account - making it so that every contact etc not stored on the device is gone. Even when I try to sign out and back in, it'll allow me to sign in, even get to the welcome "....@yahoo.com" screen and then redirect to have me signed in under her gmail address.

Now even on my laptop - when I go to sign into my google drive or google doc account, it'll allow me to sign in as my yahoo address as I always have but then when I click my profile icon I'm clearly signed in under her email.

I have no idea how to fix this. Since it's also my laptop I'm worried that just resetting my phone won't work as MY email will always redirect to hers.
 
Welcome to Android Central! Go to Settings>Accounts>Google​. Do you see her Gmail address there? If so, select it and tap Menu>Remove Account. Does that fix things?
