I only have 2nd gear and wont shift to other gears

Actually, I think this has happened. There’s a rather large bushing that is surrounds a pin that is enclosed by the working end of gearshift cable and somehow the bushing has either worked its way loose and fallen out, leaving the gearshift to flop around the pin. So, instead of allowing your tranny to move from gear to gear, the connector at the end of the cable is only able to stay seated long enough to enable the transmission to go into second. First, third, fourth or fifth are no good.

You will need to obtain a transmission shift cable repair kit. It consists of a couple of bushing halves, the proper retaining and lock clips. At this point, I would suggest that if you know a do-it-yourselfer who is comfortable or has knowledge of shift cable repairs, contact that person and ask for assistance.

You can also find any number of helpful videos on the YouTube that will show you what to do. Again, though, if you aren’t comfortable with or used to working around the confined areas under the hood or under the engine (if you can’t access the cable from under the hood, you will either have to raise the car up to working height on a lift or put it up on a hydraulic floor jack for clearance or you will have to get underneath the vehicle and work there), it’s a good idea to let someone who either has the facilities and expertise do the work.

I am not saying that you can’t do it, it is just that I am suggesting that if you need this done quickly, then you should let someone else handle it. However, with that said, there are kits available that will fix this problem.
