Lots of red numbers

Right off the bat I lost a $215 SNG this afternoon and I had a bad feeling in my gut about how my day was going to progress. I cashed in the next three SNGs and should have been feeling good, but I still had that crappy feeling. This should have been my sign to stop for the day, but I ignored it and kept playing. I then had the following run:

-$109, -$104.50, -$109, -$109, -$55, -$55, -$55, -$215, +$45, +$391, -$109

That's -$484.50 for the day and a very unhappy Cort. There's one hand that I can't get out of my head. It was the last $215 SNG and I held QhJc in my BB. Blinds were 50/100 and the action comes to me with two limpers, one of them being UTG. The flop comes QJ5 and it looks good to me. I bet out 200, which was 2/3 the pot and the UTG player raises me to 600. This is where I'm questioning myself. Do I need to push all-in here? I still had around 2k left in my stack and I pushed in, only to find myself up against a set of 5's. Does anyone not go broke here? If I had to do it over, I think I would still push. Top two pair is hard to lay down there. Anyways, I doubt you guys want to have me go on and on about this one hand, so I'll just give you the screenshot and call it a night:
