Have I killed my hub?

So I was trying to take apart a freewheel on my 80s Fuji with my friend's chainwhip and another homemade chainwhip. The cogs wouldn't budge no matter how much I tried, and I'm sure I was going in the right direction. Anyway, when I put the wheel back on, it was a little out of true. No problem, I must have put some pressure on one or two of the spokes. Then when I spun the wheel I noticed that my freewheel wobbles. It didn't do this before. So something's bent, and I don't know what, and I feel pretty stupid. Not that I haven't seen this on my BMX; it's just really annoying. What do you guys think? Is it the hub? Is it the freewheel? Should I not ride it? I don't have any money at all and this is currently the bike I'm getting around on. I'm going to go hang my head in shame now.
