It seems like I’ve used up all space on my MBP, and when I rebooted it it became corrupted/inoperable (when I go into disk utilities, Macintosh HD is “unmounted”, and when I press “mount”, nothing happens. On internet recovery, the same thing gives me “Alert: couldn’t mount disk”. Clicking “Repair” gives me “Alert: Partition map repair failed while adjusting structures to fit current whole disk size.”)
I was wondering if it’s possible to recover any data from it? I have some sensitive documents that haven’t backed up due to poor internet connection. On disk utility it says the drive could not be mounted and I can’t find the drive via the terminal.
Thank you!

Is your drive formatted as an HFS+ (macOS Extended) or APFS volume? If it’s HFS+, you can try DiskWarrior. (Though, from the sound of it, the corruption may not be in the volume itself but rather in the partition map, and I don’t know if DiskWarrior is able to fix those errors. May be worth reaching out to their support team.)
