What options do I have if I overstayed my 6 months in the US apart from leaving the country to get myself reinstated? I came here legally.

If you leave the country now, then you will trigger a 3 year bar of inadmissibility since you have accrued over 180 days in unlawful presence. Please consult with an immigration lawyer before filing any documents or departing the U.S.
