The more you use the computer, the more of the old files will be unrecoverable because the space they were stored in is continuously getting reused for new files, and once it's reused, whatever was there before is gone. Shut it down and use some other computer to research your options ( this superuser question is a good place to start). If you are interested in trying to do data recovery, stop using the computer immediately. But I wouldn't expect to find much, and what you would find would be (by definition) old versions and other things you considered unimportant.

That's what they mean by secure deletion. securely" option does is to overwrite the deleted files to make sure they're really really gone and unrecoverable. securely" option (and not done much else with the computer after deleting the account), you might've been able to use data recovery software to find & recover at least some of the files. If you used the "Delete the home folder" with "Erase home folder securely" option, there's no way to recover it.
