Question

I don't even know how to google this mistake

I saved my photo and then I noticed these grid lines on top of my picture, along with smaller versions of the picture repeating itself. I don't know what I pressed to get here. I would love not to have to start over. Does anyone know what I did or how to fix it?

Try resetting the tools and/or preferences.
To restore preferences quickly using a keyboard shortcut:

Press and hold Alt+Control+Shift (Windows) or Option+Command+Shift (Mac OS) as you start Photoshop. You are prompted to delete the current settings. The new preferences files are created the next time you start Photoshop.
Note: Using the keyboard shortcut, preference files for custom shortcuts, workspaces, and color settings will also be reset to default.
