Hello.

>From my experience, Zen isn't a "quick fix," or something that we can
(should) turn to only when we seem we've reached the peak of some new
crisis.  It's a lifelong practice, really, and it's when we're not
practicing that situations like the one you've described here seem to jump
out and bite us in the rear.

The only advice I can give you is to resume your practice, and do everything
you can to maintain that practice.
