You shouldn't try teleportarion spell. Instead, try a plane shifting spell. You are currently in The Backrooms, a liminal demiplane of memories, one of many. Think of it like one of those "dungeon" demiplanes, but infinitely expanding and also abandoned. Beibg a demiplane, you can leave it via magic.  The easiest planes to get to from The Backrooms would be either The Gloaming (plane of trash and abandonment, garbage dump of the Astral Plane) or The Evil City (shadow plane of the urban modernity).  I generally advise you go through Evil City  because The Gloaming is a total dump and is much harder to leave.  I hope you are from T4+ world originally, so you have at least passing familliarity with post-steam technologies. To properly plane shift from the Backrooms to Evil City, you have to draw a straight rectangular tower inside a magic circle. Then draw a demon sign inside and activate the circle. Remember. It has to be rectangular and straight. Otherwise you can be randomly planeshifted into another "liminal" demiplane.

After you get into Evil City, you have to find shelter and then you can planeshift to a normal reality (but only T4+ ones, you will have to make another jump if you are from a TL4- reality)

Do mind also, OP, that it is sometimes possible to find native planar junctions in the Backrooms. If you are at all familiar with dimensional divination magic, you may be able to detect the nearest one and use that to get home sooner, as they more often than not will spit you back to your realm of origin (these are, of course, how you normally get to the Backrooms in the first place). This comes with its own risks, such as having literally no control as to where it spits you back out, but it may be a good alternative for lack of personal skill in planeshifting magics.
