Hey Mark!
Thanks for responding, I did partially try yes. The issue though is that I know my password but every time I try to log in it asks for the authentication code from the email I can't access anymore. Some of the emails linked to some of the accounts I tried logging in to but it tells me that the email account has been deleted. I messages dropbox customer support on twitter and will be waiting to see if they respond to me tomorrow (fingers crossed). At this point im so desperate to my files that if I am able to zoom call them so they can see that my face matches almost all the pictures on file im willing to do that.

You will need to log a ticket at www.dropbox.com/support - make sure you are not logged in to here or the website and ask for help. Note that you may not be able to regain access. It is not always possible.
The best bet would be to reactivate the GMail if you can.

I have seen a few people mention that you need to make sure you aren't logged in to ask for help, is there a reason for that? From your experience of what you've seen, is there a chance that I would be able to regain access? I genuinely don't know what I would do if I can't. I tried the option of regaining and getting the deleted gmail accounts back but it still will not let me. Im really stuck.
