I am also sorry you are so angry. Dealing with anger is never easy. Be very careful about feeding it with inflammatory comments. If you were to post these kind of comments on facebook or your own personal website you might start an investigation. I am almost certain that is not what you want.

If you do not have a therapist, you could try to find one that specializes in anger management.

Anger management is a complicated process just like removing weeds that have infested a garden for a long time. You tear out the plants but the roots send out more shoots. There are many options under a google search, but here is one I found that I have not tried
www.emotionsanonymous.org/

and a forum
Coping with Emotions - Forums at Psych Central

Here are some ideas to manage anger posted or blogged here on PC
Psych Central - Search results for Managing anger

I had to accept that I was not the top of my class. It was not easy. That is part of the growing up process. I have written people in prisons that say the reason they were there is because they could not manage their anger. And they tell me the biggest regret they have is that they didn't reign in their anger before they acted it out and ruined their lives and made other innocent people suffer. That regret is something that eats at them every day. "If I only had stopped myself before..."

Now is a good time to start asking yourself what you can do today to reign in your emotions.
Thanks for the kind response..

I know I should be more cautious in what I post as anywhere else I would of had police knocking at my door.

Truthfully I think the reason I'm so upset is because the work I submitted to the competition was unique, I didn't copy anyone else. Yet they let someone who copied others works win.
And I think an adding factor to this is that I was and still am top of my class, yet didn't win. I had the best grades and most brightest mind out of my whole class yet couldn't win one messily award.

Also I quit my job today.

I'll take a look into some of the links you've posted and see if any of it sticks out to me.
