I know exactly how and what i did to loose all my passwords and cookies but what im susprised is how quickly people from all over the world were trying to get into my account. 

My question is; how were they able t get acess to this data so fast? im somehwat glad i got hacked as the past week all ive been doing is digging into these cracking forums and cookie grabbers/stealers. so far my search has brought me to breachforums, but all i see is big data dums and company breaches. my question is why would anyone be intrested in stealing my credentials if this wasnt a targetted attack? and after 1 day of me running the stupid python script my logins were public as it seems, even google and every other account was warning me that they found my password on the web. so does that mean google and other companies pay to keep record of the breaches?

You prob downloaded malware , got put into a stealer log which was posted online and people ran through it with a script trying to log into your accounts.

Yeah if it was malware then reset your PC entirely (Wipe it), enable 2fa + change your passwords. I would try getting your bank details changed ASAP if they were leaked

can you please tell me more about stealer logs, the name sounds self explanatory and i keep readin it but what exactly is it? i understand that i ran some malware through an exe file so if im not mistaken a stealer log would basically be a dump of all the data collected thought the specific malware collected into a log. 

also "ran through it with a script" if its already logged why and what kind of script would they run it through?

that was the first thing i did. i disconnected my pc from the internet then grabbed my spare laptop and recovered literally every account i made since middle school, re installed windows on my pc after full formatting the disk.

thank fully no bank details as i dont even have one lol

Stealer logs are just files of a users saved logins after they download the stealer which is usually disguised as something else, that either gets sold to others or used by the person who deployed the malware. It gets run through a software like openbulet, silverbullet or another similar one which then automatically checks to see if the logins are correct and still active.

people found ur stuff probably on one of the endless stealer logs shared here or if someone had your email or anything of the matter they used a db search engine like intelx or some else and found the logs

They probably made a dump of you're info on a website like this, and most likely just got big quickly, you also said you know how they got you're info so probably try avoid doing whatever you did last time.
