Did you make a copy of the database files as soon as you realized what
you had done?
If you did not, you can probably not recover the data because you have
kept using the database. It will have overwritten your deleted data with
other data by now.

Most likely you destroyed your old data by doing that.

If it's also really important, stop using PostgreSQL RIGHT NOW. Shut it
down. Then call an expert who might be able to help you, if you're
really really lucky.
