Same here!!!! I have been hospitalised due to rage attacks and I was put on anti-psychotics but I was dx borderline personalty disorder 15 years ago so that kind of explains that.
I had 7 years of CBT which helped and kept me from going to jail. After being dx bipolar in 2007 I have had one rage attack (luckily the people ran away and no one got hurt) just before Xmas 2008.
I can definitely handle my rage better as the rage attacks are now few and far between. Rage, once understood can be treated.
Good luck!
