My account was probably hacked

For 2 weeks ive been sending in tickets, trying to get back into my account.
When I try signing in, it says my account doesn't exist but then it says it does exist.
Every time I startup my laptop, it wants me to sign in but it shows a whole other email thats not mine so whoever hacked my account likely changed the email.
My Microsoft account is the same as my email, ******@gmail.com, and the account that shows up is ******@outlook.com
I'm also signed into the hacked microsoft account on my laptop but have no access to anything, like my xbox account
