“I had some issues with the app loading but so far I really like my psychiatrist, the treatment plan, the check-ins, etc. A little confused why they don’t share diagnoses on the app. Overall though, it’s been good.”
“Hello.
I am not used to doing the video visits, but my therapist makes them easy to deal with.
My psychiatrist was recently on vacation and I had to go to an express health care place because I was still having trouble sleeping. That place prescibed a controlled substance. My psychiatrist now claims that she can't be in charge of my medications because of that.”
“Everything so far has been great I like that i can do therapy from home. I would say 5 starts but the app can be a little finicky at times and I wish I could communicate between sessions a little smoother and quicker response time.”
“I was able to get an appointment right away. Very helpful psychiatric nurse practitioner prescribed my maintenance meds and gave me insight about the symptoms I was experiencing I decided to add therapy with a LCSW who was very supportive and encouraged me to challenge myself everyday. My mood has improved alot.”
“I am really pleased with my therapist.I love that I can make an appointment when I choose and at the times are variable. The therapist that I have by coincidence is very applicable to my issues.”
“Finding the right psychiatrist has been challenging. I'd like to find a new one on brightside which will be my third one. I'm on my 2nd counselor whom I really am confident in. I feel like she listens she has empathetic energy and doesn't get swept away by my rambling. I really like her. She's helped me a lot. My psychiatrist has a difficult challenge as I do not like taking medication I do not always agree with them wanting to put me on multiple medications. I used my own judgment and dropped two of my medications which were I believe causing my blood pressure to dip rather low. It's extremely difficult for me to find a psychiatrist who doesn't want to just pill me up but as I mentioned It's not easy for them because I go back and forth a lot so I know I'm part of the issue with that as well. I'm working on it. I just wish I could find a psychiatrist who suits my needs and has patience. She didn't even show up the last appointment. Thankfully I am doing better after dropping the other two medications but it's uncertain how long I'll be "up" as I go up and down a lot with my issues. Overall I'm thankful for brightside and I really feel like its made a positive impact in my life. I was at my wits end when I reached out to yall. I do believe it prevented me from negative things that were at foot so thanks so much and I will continue to work with yall.”
