You did the right thing, and you will learn lots, even if you get more advanced qualifications like the IR(R). There is always an opportunity for some mishap.
But to help me, I'd do two things 1: Don't fly in low viz unless you are sure it wont get worse and even prevent you from landing somewhere 2: get one of the popular GPS units / software to at least give you some situational backup and more prominent choices.
You were right to seek help though, so be confident you are making the right decisions in the air and build up to more challenging flights to increase confidence
