“Brightside has linked me with two amazing ladies that have truly helped me. Without them, I’m not sure if I could’ve handled life by myself. This is the first time, in all of my 56 years of living, that I’ve reached out regarding my mental health and couldn’t be anymore satisfied with the treatment I’ve received. Thank you!! And the app is so simple and easy to navigate.”
“Im grateful that psychiatric care has been made accessible to me as someone without health insurance. i know these platforms can be villianized but they have a place in our broken healthcare system for demographics like myself.”
“So far the first provider didn’t care and when she was questioned about a medicine she prescribed she became angry and told me I should seek another provider. The second one didn’t bother to read a message I had sent her before our appointment that give her an outline of my history etc and told me she didn’t have time to read a message that long.”
“I really like being able to see my provider from the comfort of my home. I would like to be able to book a follow-up appointment a month out but that's not an option.”
“The therapy part of my treatment is great! However the psychiatrist part, not so great. I can’t get the medication I was prescribed from my previous psychiatrist and it is starting to affect me. I also don’t feel like the meds my psychiatrist has me on are doing much to help me. All that keeps happening is increasing my dosage when I fell I need different medication”
