Default Tilt from Hell

If this is the wrong forum, forgive me, this just seems to make the most sense. Also, sorry if this has been posted before, I've tried to search but I think we all know how good the search function is.

I'm a very competative guy. I can not stand losing at anything, whether it be video games, friendly sports, and especially poker. If I go on a downswing like today, I can't deal with it.
Today I ran into some bad luck (flopped flush gets runner runnered full house, straight vs rivered flush, set over set, all that good stuff) and once I was down around 15 BB I simply cannot live with that. I get extremely frustrated and cannot leave the table without trying to make it back. For the most part I'm fairly successful at recouping my loses. Somedays, however, I fail miserably and end up down a lot more. What do you guys suggest? I know that its just tilt, but because of my extremely competative nature its like the tilt from hell. Any recommended reads? Thanks.
