Did I mess up the IELTS speaking Test?

Hello!
I took my ielts speaking test few days back.
My exam was in the morning but it took me ages to have the speaking, it was at 6 in the evening.
Being a native speaker, I never really thought I would have any trouble with this particular part but unfortunately I think I have messed it up!
The lady looked irritated and worn out! She seemed knackered.
Part One
The first part was fine. She asked me when was the first time I brought a flower and a magazine etc. I told her I have never been fond of gardening.
Anyhow, she seemed so uninterested and least concerned that it got me confused.
Her: do you believe in sharing?
Me: no! I don't really share my stuff with anyone. I am quite possessive.
Her: okay. How you promote sharing in children?
Me thinking omg, I have messed it up. I got confused.
Part TwoFor part 2, she asked have I ever shared something with someone? When? How was it etc etc?
I said "my graduation day" and shared the memories and stuff about that particular day. But she was like "say something more".
I didn't know what to say :/ I was like "What should I say 😳?". I couldn't think of anything,.
I repeated few stuff .. She again said "can you speak more on this".
Part ThreeGod!! Part 3 went fine but now I'm super nervous and scared about my results.
She could tell I was born and brought up here.
And Another mistake "I said privacy in the American accent. While the rest of the conversation was all in British English".
Please! You think I'll cross the 7 mark.
I would love a response. And I'm sorry for such a long post, but I'm petrified and it's getting on my nerves :(
