I am not sure what "normal rational adult" reaction could be expected from Juliette at that point. She has recently--length of time open to discussion--had a complete change of life. A short list--boyfriend can no longer kiss after she helped him rescue HIS friends by taking a poison, job prospects are poor-her patients are afraid of her, former friends refer to her as "freaking", she has raging fits of justified anger because no one can help her go back to being normal, she turned into a type of being no one wants to be around--note how nervous Monroe and Rosalee were around Renard's mom(who only wanted to help her son's friend return to "normal"). People can get stressed when they suffer changes in their medical, economic, social status. Suicide is a common reaction to just one of those, a meltdown following a total collapse in one's life in not unusual. If she had not gotten upset and started lashing out, that would have been unexpected and totally abnormal.
