It is easy to accidentally overwrite a file if you are updating a basic template (e.g. committee minutes or a resume.) If you have closed the document you are toast. Your only hope is to try to find an auto-saved version.
HOWEVER, if you hit SAVE instead of SAVE AS and you still have the document open do this:
1. Select all (CTRL A); Copy (CTRL C)
2. Open a new blank document and paste (CTRL V) your revised text in
3. Return to the one you want to recover. Use the UNDO command (CTRL Z) until you have backed out all the changes. Could take a while but should restore your document to its original state. SAVE again.
4. Now go to the NEW document and SAVE AS the new name.
Best practice: immediately do SAVE AS the new name when you open the document before making changes.
