Probably your bin logs/wal logs have grown a lot without you noticing it, you can check for this at metrics explorer and check for the detailed storage of your instance. There is no way in GCP to shrink the disk on your own so you will have to either migrate your instance into a new one with an smaller disk or open a ticket to Cloud Support and ask them to shrink your disk once you configure your instance properly
