The only way is by signing a message: Recovering hacked accounts or accounts with lost passwords (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=497545.0)

Trust me, you can't get it back without following the procedures above.

Try to sign that message, meanwhile you can locked your account to preventing hacker for using your account.

Hope it's help.

I'm just saying to OP that account recovery usually takes 6 months to years....

I know there has been recent account recoveries ( 1-2 months ago?? < - - I'm not sure )

but all the effort in waiting can probably be spent on talking to the community and you'll probably get the same results in the time they will recover your account.
