I created a new catalog and did not put any photos in it. I logged out and looked back in. All I can see now is the new catalog and none of my pictures.

You'll need to reconnect to your original catalog, which should contain all your photos. In Lightroom, go to File > Open Catalog and browse to the location of your previous catalog file. Once opened, your photos should be accessible again. If you don't remember the location of your original catalog, you might need to search for it on your computer. Remember to regularly back up your Lightroom catalogs to avoid such data loss in the future.
