Default Grind into 2nd bad

I grinded into second pretty bad last night and it freaked me out. I'm kinda a hypochondriac when it comes to my car because of the money it represents. I just wanted to know what the likely hood i messed something up was. I drove home fine and haven't had any problems. I'm probably just freaking out but I want to know if i should expect any long term side effects. Thanks guys, happy holidays.
