Your friend is incorrect.

"When you fall, get up again. When you fall again, get up yet again" - Every Orthodoxy priest ever to live ever.

Go to confession. You've repented, now seek God's forgiveness and reconcile yourself with Christ. Take comfort in the arms of our loving father.

Ba-da-bing, ba-da-boom. You're not excommunicated. You're a sinner, as are we all. It is only through Christ's love that we have any hope of salvation.

No one can be "banned" from Communion, though there can be a period of abstinence prescribed by the spiritual father for more extreme sins.
