> Does that mean if I'm doing a trial of an antipsychotic that it needs the same 4-6 weeks trial that I would give to an antidepressant (using it for bipolar depression)

I think it's almost impossible to make a blanket statement about how many weeks represents an adequate trial. Assuming that an AP is well tolerated, you should probably give it at least one month.
