This was shocking. In my 25 years as a Photoshop user, I've
never seen the program actually ruin an image.
I clicked on the text tool a few times, and the
word "TEXT" appeared all over the image. I couldn't eliminate the
multiple words from the text. They were tattooed there.
I closed the document without saving, hoping that would get rid
of the words.
When I re-opened, TEXT stamps still covered the image.
If anyone knows how to do a bug report, I guess this experience
should justify one.
Thanks!

What zoom ratio are you viewing at?
Try turning off GPU acceleration.
What operating system are you using?
Do you have a Wacom tablet connected to this system?
Do you have another computer you can view the image with?
Try viewing the PSD file with an app like Ifanview (if you are a Windows user. I don't know of a Mac equivalent.

I'm on OS 10.12.3. All sorts of different zoom ratios. No Wacom, or other computers to view image with.

Have you tried turning off GPU acceleration? You said that you closed without saving, which indicates an artefact and the GPU is the main cause of those.
Apparently OSX has a built in PSD viewer. How do the files look in that?

You obviously need to find out if the issue is burned in or not, as a first step. If it is, then it had to have saved over the original. Would Time Machine let you go back to an earlier version? I am not flash with OSX and Macs

What you are reporting just doesn't make a lot of sense. If you close a file without saving, then the original file will remain untouched. It sounds like you have a display issue, or you reopened a temporarily saved image. Surely the original image still exists on your hard drive. If not, then you did not close or quit without saving.
Also, if you are running any kind of back up, like time machine on a Mac you can always go back and retireve the original file.

I agree, it doesn't make sense, which is why I think this is a bug.

So, if you haven't saved it at all... what is the modification date on the file? Is that before, at the point of, or after, this error?

The modification date says yesterday at 2 AM, so that would be after the error.
The error is the word "Text" repeated 6 times over the subject.
I did not type the word "Text." A new word appeared every time I tried to activate the
text tool. I have been unable to duplicate this problem. The text tool no longer
types the word "Text" when clicked on.
this is a bug.
Please stop asking questions, and start attempting to shed light.

How about reading what has been written and _answering_ questions?
Please go back though this thread, and follow the advice given, and report back. No one can help you without the information we are requesting.

Well, I always thought that the way to solve weird problems was to ask the person with the problem about it. You're obviously much smarter than I am (perhaps than all of us), so I will not trouble you any more with my clumsy attempts at so-called help.

Typical. You don't have a clue, so you start insulting me.

The way we get clues is to ask questions, just like doctors. That's how it works.
You have a perfect right not to answer, and we have a perfect right not to help any further.

We would all like to help you out, but we have very little to go on. You haven't shared what version of Photoshop you are using, or your hardware set up (other than it is a Mac running OSX 10.12.3), details of how the 'bug' occurred, if you have had continued problems, or if this was an isolated problem, or even an image of what the 'bug' looks like.
Nobody here is pretending to know anything more than what little you have shared with us.
