The first thing you should do is just take it easy, sleep on it. Give yourself a few days, a week or two to come to terms with what has happened. Your next exam is six months to a year away. Dr. Jack has more advice in this video, What Do You Do If You Fail Your Medical Board Exam?
ABPN Addiction Psychiatry Examination Scoring
There is no predefined passing rate for Addiction Psychiatry examinees. Each examinee should have some degree of familiarity with the subject matter of each question. Even though the examinee may be in doubt about the correct answer to a particular question, they should answer every question. This will increase the likelihood that the examinee’s examination score will reflect the breadth of their knowledge of the field. There is no penalty for guessing.
ABPN Board Examination Format
The computer-delivered Addiction Psychiatry Continuing Certification Examination primarily consists of 170 test questions to be completed within 170 minutes (2 hours and 50 minutes). The Addiction Psychiatry Continuing Certification Examination consists of single-best-answer multiple-choice questions. Example of a single-best-answer multiple-choice question format:

You prescribe naltrexone, and after 8 weeks of treatment, she happily reports a significant decrease in alcohol intake. You recall studying that people with this certain gene variant respond better to naltrexone treatment. Which allele would cause a patient to respond better to this treatment?
