I am not on any drugs at the moment. I haven't taken Abilify in about a month.

I have been trying to suppress the urge to explode by rocking and wringing my hands. Throwing or playing with a ball sounds like a good idea, but I cannot do that in my apartment, because the neighbor upstairs tends to complain. I will try going for a walk in the cold. Hopefully getting out of here for awhile will help. Thanks for the suggestions.
