Well, I was on just Haldol for 16 years and was stable the whole time. Course I got Tardive Dyskinesia and a few other side effects. Then my meds were totally changed and I got so depressed I was sucidial, but I read that could have been the Haldol, too. Now I'm on a lot of meds (no anti-psychotics, though) and am stable. I am bipolar. But I'm stable most of the time. I've only been manic once, but it was psychotic. That was 1993. When I get depressed, I get sucidial. I consider myself weird for a bipolar.
