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.
