No your honda is "NOT" a race car, dont treat it as such. You screwed the hell out of your sychros!
Not an easy fix... Your probably looking at a rebuild or a transmission swap. Those transmission are fairly simple to rebuild in the world of transmissions and with a service manual you just may be able to replace with new/rebuilt sychros on the cheap!
You do have a sealed transmission so checking the level is not as simple as checking a dipstick but can be done by pulling the fill plug off.

It could be a list of things: synchronizers or shift fork are going out. Or it could be a fault inside the gearbox, or a tranny problem. I've even heard cars with low mileage have that problem. Did you check the Tranny fluid? If that isn't it, I'd definitely go have it checked out professionally. I have a '96 mustang gt, that pops out of 3, and won't go into reverse unless you shove it in there. I believe mine are the scynchros. Anyways, I wish you the best on getting it fixed!
