Well, slip... maybe im a bit late, anyway...
You said this woman already forgave you. I think its the most important thing.
Now, you need forgive yourself for doing that to her. Maybe thats the hardest part, as if you have some self-harming tendencies, maybe you have some issues against yourself, and therefore cant be kind enough for yourself and forgive yourself.
Anyway, it dont helps to keep re-opening old wounds... i dont want to sound rude or anything, but it seems for me you have some liking for suffering. I wouldnt say its normal, but i know some people just like it. They seems to filtrate only the bad things of the life, and suffer it whole-heartedly.
I would suggest for you to seek a specializated help. Some good psychologist, or counsellor... cause this kind of trouble can happen again in your life, so it would be wise to treat it as soon as you can, for avoid future troubles.

Thats a very good idea too... but maybe you should do it after, or togheter with, some psychological treatment... cause sometimes meditation can bring forth things deeply buried, and its not always easy dealing with them...

Anyway, i hope you already is better,
And my best wishes for you! :thumbsup:
