Default Connected battery terminals wrong by accident

Hi to all , unfortunately as i was wrapping up a DSG fluid change , Putting everything back together , I made a really stupid mistake by accident. I put the battery back on & accidentally connected the battery terminals in reverse. No huge sparks just the headlights came on & the horn came on. I immediately disconnected the battery & connected it the correct way.

Now here's the problem. I have no power steering the abs & tcs lights are on & the battery light is on. The alternator is not charging the battery , i cant unlock the trunk hatch & the ac compressor doesn't turn on but the fans will blow. I dont know what to do. The only things I've changed so far were all the fuses except relays. Any one have any ideas what could be wrong ? the car starts no problem everything else works except what I stated.
