“It's really hard to navigate and hard to communicate in a timely matter. Struggling to get a prescription refill because the therapist are not properly communicating with the Drs. Booked wrong appt. because the information given to me by the Dr. to make a follow-up appt was not clear on how to do. I ended up booking the wrong appt with a therapist instead of the Dr. and now Im stuck with no medication because I need to do another follow-up and pay $25 again when I just had an appt. on Saturday for the same thing. Really very frustrating.”
“I was aiming to get help with being distracted, as in ADD but was placed on Lexapro for anxiety and depression. Every has a little anxiety and depression through their lives but not everyone needs medication. Not sure what I think of Brightside at this time.”
“I wish brightside had a more broad range of things they covered. Depression / anxiety is very limiting and also 30 minutes is not enough time to talk to a therapist”
“Brightside is a good option for those with a busy work schedule, but I have yet to feel significant improvements after months with them. The sessions are really short and seem to lack structure and I do not feel I am making forward progress.”
“Extremely expensive. Also, the cost was totally non-transparent. I found out a month after my visit, that the visit cost $500. I would have liked to know this beforehand. You should post your costs publicly and clearly.”
“I am not doing okay as I should. The Aripiprazole you gave me is not helping me to control my situation, I went to E.R and they me ATIVAN 1 mg which has been great in controlling my situation. Please could change my medicine to ATIVAN 1 mg. Thanks”
“This service has a really hands off approach to care, but they are very agressive in forcing responses, and immediately prescribed medication. Additionally their website denies access to the rest of the website until you schedule a therapist meaning, since I am seeking outside care I really can't reach out to my psychiatrist or use the website.”
“I was very excited at first and optimistic. However, I get 30-minute calls with my therapist now, and there is nothing I can resolve in that amount of time. Since I have a copay, I cannot schedule multiple calls a week without paying a lot. I am thankful for the medication management but can get that from my PCP. The reason I am using Brightside is for the therapy. It's not really panning out right now.”
“Brightside was the perfect fit for me. I've been struggling off/on for a long time. The providers where great, the system is amazing. Say to work with, personalized, and easy since it's Online. Highly recommend. I'm doing so much better know it's amazing. Thanks Brightside!”
“I have not seen the commitment from therapy that I thought I would get. I started this to have someone to talk to and that truly hasn’t been the case. Thanks all the same”
“I get requests to rate the performance of my provider I’ve only spoken to that person one time how can I write their performance I mean seriously besides give me a prescription I’ve been alone at this the whole time”
