Help!!!! How do I recover a deleted portfolio?

Having a bit of panic attack...  So I accidentally deleted portfolio content pages (the pages that open when you click on the main portfolio page categories.)  As it turns out, deleting the portfolio main page category choices, deletes all of it.  I immediately looked in the trash bin and portfolio is not there! 😩  I'm thinking that a portfolio doesn't get saved when you delete it?, and praying I'm wrong!!! 

The image below shows where I accidentally deleted the portfolio pages. Then I added the 3 pages back, but the pages that used to get linked to from these 3 categories (the actual portfolio contents) are nowhere to be found.  PLEASE tell me I don't have to recreate those pages.

Here's the link to the site: https://ellipse-tangerine-yx36.squarespace.com/config/pages/63f4f8dec9a2bc2a52a3df5c

Oops. If you delete a Portfolio page (the 'collection' that holds the Project pages) you should be able to recover it within 30 days. Deleted portfolios are permanently deleted after this period.

If you delete individual Project pages, the pages that are stored within a Portfolio, these cannot be recovered as they are permanently deleted. A warning message should appear to explain the consequences of deleting a project:

Uggghhh!!!  I was afraid of that. I guess I was in too much of a rush to notice the warning message. Oh well, back to the drawing board. Haste makes waste as they say.  Thanks for the quick response Paul.

I accidentally deleted the wrong website project from my main SS Dashboard project view. Is there a way to recover? It let me delete it too easily, no confirmation message....
