Supe-
I'm considerably younger than you, but here are my thoughts:
You mention that you had a major issue a few years ago and you are worried about a relapse. In my experience, you won't relapse for the simple reason that you've been down that road before, and you are already recognizing it. It's hard to mess up twice.
Take care of yourself first. This sounds dumb to some people, but get physically active right away. Go for a long walk every day, or for a run. Go to the gym, whatever, Just get your body physically tired- this is better than any drug you can get. It helps me to feel physically good, and allows me to separate my body and mind to better handle the bigger issues in life. Give this a try for a few days- I bet ANYTHING it helps. I was in a very bad place about 6 years ago, and this was a tremendous help to me.
As for the woman, only you truly know how to handle it. Get yourself feeling sorted, and then worry about it. I think things like women have to come without effort- if it is meant to be, it will happen. If not, so be it.
Keep your head up.
