“Brightside really came through for me during a time when I was feeling at my lowest. My doctor made me feel at ease immediately and has worked with me to get me on the right dose of the right medicine, and I'm already doing so much better. Asking for help is hard, but Brightside made it a lot easier than I ever expected.”
“The doctor that Brightside connected me with is the best I’ve had in years. She’s insightful, thoughtful, and caring. The text-only therapy is admittedly a bit odd to navigate — feels like there is a set path and I don’t know if I should be asking other personal questions outside of that pathway. Maybe an in-person/virtual option would be better.”
“A literal life saver. So convenient, so effective, and more involved/high touch than my former psychiatrist was. I should have done this a year sooner.”
“I've been doing a lot better. It's weird to think that years of depression and anguish could have been easily helped with a monthly pill subscription. The $95/monthly fee is what keeps me from giving this service a 5 star rating. While it's cheaper than a lot of alternatives, it's still a monthly cost that I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up with long term.”
“Brightside was here for me at a time that I really needed help, but was unable to see a local doctor in a timely manner. Dr J Mink really listened to my concerns and worked with me to find the right medication and dosage to treat my panic attacks. I am feeling better now, and I recommend Brightside to my friends.”
“I would expect real checkin a from doctor, it’s too automated — though I know I can message him, I don’t get the feeling that he exists post our first convo”
“Brightside is working very hard to help me with my depression. My Doctor communicates on a regular basis and I feel very secure in my ongoing treatment.”
“Overall, Brightside has helped me. It's convenient to have check ins weekly and a doctor you can message anytime. It is, however, a bit expensive, which can add to my anxiety. Especially doing coronavirus it would be nice to have a reduced price, as I'd really love to add on the therapy but don't feel it's afordable. Again, overall it has definitely been helpful and I've seen progress.”
