“It is now my second month with Brightside. I am pretty happy overall with the program except I hope just a couple of the people working for them can remember to please consider they’re dealing with people who have anxiety problems and so far they have said and done a few things already to sort of raise my anxiety a bit more rather than help take it away. I did adore a support agent named Arlene though, who understood I was new here and helped walk me through an issue I was having and she was extremely helpful and sweet and made me want to stick with the program and helped me to stay on track with my medication. I will continue to stick with Brightside and I appreciate all it has done for me so far.”
“Brightside’s service is great, though I don’t feel that the numbers are very accurate. For example, I might have a pretty shitty week up in my head, and maybe have ONE single good day, and all of a sudden bam my depression anxiety is shown as mild, like what? Having one good day doesn’t mean that all of a sudden a computer program can say that I’m all good, I’m still having a hard time most of the time... though the medication is helping a bit, I don’t feel the numbers are really an accurate measurement for me personally.”
“I have struggled with depression and anxiety for most of my life and this made it so much easier to get the help I needed! My doctors are fantastic and are really helping me better myself! I just wish there was more than 1 video session included in the price per month.”
“So far, this has been a great app for helping manage depression & anxiety from not just a medication standpoint, but therapy and psychology, as well. The holistic approach works great for me.”
“Quick access to depression and anxiety care is wonderful. It would be five stars if the price was slightly more economical and the doctor showed some empathy/compassion.”
“Delivers on the care it claimed to provide, though I wish the counseling sessions were longer and more frequent.
I have not been using it long enough to have an opinion about it's long term efficacy, though in the short term my expectations have generally been met.”
“The medication seems to be helping but I honestly haven't had the time to put forth the effort with therapy so I'm not sure how effective it would be for me.”
“I don’t know how much I like the online platform, I’m more of an in-person type. However during the pandemic it quite literally saved my life. I truly don’t know where I’d be without the help.”
