Default A/C R134 Overfill?

After I put some r134 stop leak 8 oz can(i put all 8oz in) in my a/c system and removed the connector, all of the freon i just put in started spraying out through the r134 connector nozzle on the car until it was empty ( sprayed for 5 mins). Now my a/c doesn't blow any cold air at all. My question is did I just ruin my compressor? or can this be corrected?

Any input is welcome

Fyi (a/c blew cool air before but not as cool as it should be/car was running with a/c on full blast when r134 was added)

so your saying your system is EMPTY? if so DONT turn on a/c again till you get it filled. so what was the brand of the stop leak you put in? btw the stop leak isnt a freon (if this is what your saying when you said "all of the freon i just put in started spraying out" did you leave the connector on/attached when this started spraying out?

if the system is not empty and you have actual a/c gauges then find out what the high/low side pressure...

i got a feeling i maybe recommending you to take this into a mechanic you trust...
