I'm still taking rexulti, but I'm talking about my experience in the past, where I was off it for a solid 3 weeks and was angry the entire time (i.e., it wasn't really withdrawal). I think it's changed me permanently.

Without treatment being bipolar, I am my two older sisters were violent to without treatment. It is strange to be a child and a teenager, and be a female who is violent. More strange, when all three sisters are violent as well. We were untreated as children and teenagers. You look to be lucky, because only you were violent as a child and teenager with just yourself.
I have been on Rexulti for a long time. I am not violent, but I am numb to the point were I feel nothing. I do not know about you, but I find role playing and doing something violent with my partner is relaxing and takes any feelings of violence away. Not sure your a man or a woman, but violence with females is very different to manage then males.
