How can I re-add myself to a Paper document?

I accidentally unshared myself from a dropbox paper file when I was trying to unshare another email account I have - now  I do not have access to the file at all.  I can not find how to restore this dropbox paper file.   Any tips?

    Hi there, LG57, thanks for posting your query today.

     

    If I'm honest, you can't add yourself back to the document, but another user that has access, can share it with you again.

     

    Let me know if you have any questions!

    Thanks ... so lesson learned here as I removed all users including myself!  Darn, but thanks!
