- This is a really incredible State of Mind. Jon Lindstrom is a very private person, but he opens up about his soul. We talk about depression, music, acting, and just about everything. Very very powerful.

Maurice Benard and Jon Lindstrom two Greats❤️🙏
Maurice and Jon: We're a family who has watched GH since April 1, 1963. Down through the years the elder members have passed on and younger ones have joined our group of GH watchers. You're in our homes 5 days a week and we love you. Some of us are genetically predisposed to anxiety and panic disorder. Several years ago, my nephew, who was bi-polar, died the same way as Jon's grandfather. Faith in God has brought us through many dark days and nights. Between November 6th and Christmas day 2023, 7 family members made Heaven their home; none were suicide. For me (the writer), the anxiety has been constant. To battle and overcome the anxiety, I sing, give lots of hugs and take it one hour, one day at a time. Watching General Hospital, listening to and watching State of Mind, is always a blessing.
thank you
I couldn’t agree more! I’m so terribly sorry for all of those losses! Death is my trigger n been in that cloud for the last 4 years. Scary! Upped my Zoloft n Xanax n starting to come out of the cloud a bit. Thank God! ❤🙏🏻💜💜💜
I love watching GH. Thanks so much Maurice for helping other people with depression. Thats how my Dad died. He killed himself in 2010. I didn't talk about it for like 4 years probably with other people. So thank you and Jon to.
Jon plays a therapist on GH!and he needed help in real life! Glad he talked about depression! I think he probably helped someone today! Thank you! That's what State of mind is all about! ❤❤🙏🙏
I really didn't know about Jon's family history and his own depression. Helps explain how he can play a therapist with such skill. He is brilliant in his dual role.
He is definitely one of the greatest actors I have ever seen!! He is amazing!! I have loved watching him forever!!Almost as I love watching you, Maurice! Thank you for having him on!! ❤❤
The subtlety with which Jon approaches his roles on GH is a master class. I am really in awe of producer Frank Valentini--the choices in casting GH, especially the past few years, are outstanding!
@@VtRD Yes!! Your comment was worded so much better than mine but I agree wholeheartedly!!🥰
I'm so happy to see Jon Lindstrom on state of mind! Oh my god I have so much respect for this actor. A brilliant actor! He's so talented! Look at him playing that Dual role he played so long on GH RAYAN AND KEVIN !LOVE THIS MAN DEARLY!THANKS MARICE FOR HAVING HIM ON STATE OF MIND ❤
John has a beautiful smile, really nice looking man. I always wonder how these actors are able to remember all of their lines. It seems so natural when they are acting. Great show, Maurice.
I’m so excited! Jon Lindstrom is one of my most favorite actors on GH! I would love to see more story lines with him on the show or even just more interactions with the other actors on the show. ♥️ Can’t wait to see this show Maurice!😃
I agree Jon wonderful is so good
He and Lucy were the best together. Remember Sigmund. Their duck? The best
Bipolar disorder is riding the waves I just came out of a depression/anxiety episode. And I signed a deal to do a limited series about it. Thank you for inspiring me guys.
Wonderful
❤️
Have a blessed Sunday!! 🥰
I love and really appreciate you, Maurice.❤❤❤
I’m so glad that Jon spoke about suicide even though he is a private man. This is so important. I’ve only shared to some people that I’m a suicide survivor. There are times that I feel no one gives a dam but I have to say Maurice your State of Mind really helps. Keep up the good work.❤🙏🇨🇦🇮🇹
thank you
Thank you both for this episode.
Cant wait for this interview jon Lindstrom is a amazing actor on gh
I talked to a neighbor just this morning with Parkinson's disease who told me he had a plan to end his life. I talked to him and I really believe I helped him just by taking and listening. His wife has dementia so she can't help, but he was in a very bad place. Talking is incredibly important! Don't hold back-open up and talk!
I'm positive your neighbor appreciated that you cared enough to talk and listen to him in his time of need. So kind of you♡.
Wow, thank you Jon Lindstrom for coming on the show and your vulnerability in sharing about your grandpa and your own depression. We are all humans, and we all struggle. This show is a gift! Another living example of someone who got to the other side of depression, and found their way out is so hopeful. ♥️
thank you
Thank you both for being brave to talk about your stories. You both are my favorite male actors right now on GH. I've watched for almost 50 years.
Wow, thank you!
Excellent interview. Thank you Jon for sharing a sheltered part of your heart. Everyone has a different kind of journey thru the darkness and it helps to hear people's experience to gain understanding and being able to relate to others in their journey. Love your character as Kevin on GH, and Ryan was definitely a character that gave Port Charles the shivers. Loved Cady on All My Children.
Good Morning Blessings to everyone ❤️🙏🏽☕️
Today’s episode was such a great one! Mr. Lindstrom is such a good…., really good actor. Mr. Lindstrom, you were so brave to tell your story and talk about your life! That was a lot. Thank you both 💙💐
A phenomenal conversation with Jon Lindstrom, an exceptionally fine actor. This talk revealed his depth and courage as a human being, and also his sense of humor and humility. (I could describe Maurice that way too!) Thank you for this gift to the world!❤️
Can't wait for this one Maurice!🐐
Love seeing his vulnerability. Whole new perspective of Jon.
Thank you Maurice for your service you are doing for so many people including myself ❤
As a nurse, who's career home has been on the mental health ward a few times, John impactful storn eeded to be. I 💯 agree with, Maurice!! If it prevents even one suicide, WOW, what wonderful, beautiful thing to have. I personally think it has the potential to reach many. God bless you both phenomenal actors. And thank you Maurice for bringing mental health struggles to the forefront and helping to make it no longer a dirty little secret to be hidden away. God bless you both you and your loved ones.🙏💞
Awesome show. The hour flew by! I so enjoy getting a glimpse of the people I watch from my living room every day. Thank you, Mo! Good to meet you, Jon!
Glad you enjoyed it
I'm going thru this right now. It's good to hear that you can be on it for a period of time and then get off, because that's what I'm trying to do now. Thank you! for the encouragement. Thank you for being so open about something so hard to talk about.... When I see the emotions that you expressed talking about depression, it has that same effect on me I become emotional , you think you won't , but the thought of it gets me every time..I wouldn't wish depression on someone I hated.. It's so dark ..The feeling of hopelessness is beyond anything I've ever felt.
Thanks once again for this amazing interview. Jon seems so pragmatic and easy going. So glad he shared with the audience his many stories. They are invaluable to the mental health community and I believe, like you do, they do help the folks watching. Thanks for your continued leadership and support regarding mental health, Maurice. You are a treasure helping so many! 🌹
Thank you Jon and Maurice. He described depression to me exactly how I feel it. So hard to explain to somebody who has never had depression. Keep up the great work Maurice. It means so much to so many . 🙏
Thank you for the description of your recent anxiety attack. I just went through one too and I agree. l learn something about myself if I analyze it! God bless and keep overcoming! That's one thing we are here on this earth to do! 💙
thank you
Thank you Maurice God Bless you that chat was awesome! Thank you Jon ! See ya on GH love ya !❤
This was a beautiful conversation between two of my favorite actors. Could have gone on for hours. Very well done.
Thank you Maurice and thank you Jon
Powerful interview
Thanks for thinking of your mom ❤
I love you both, you’re both my favorite actors on GH. I’ve been watching 46 years since I was 15, I met you both 2 times! Once was at the GH fan club luncheon in 1997. Jon in Gurnee IL also 1997. Maurice in Batavia IL 2023. Jon autographed my (his) High Lonesome hat in CA. Great to meet you on this channel. Very inspiring video. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
And I’ll be see you again Maurice, in April, in Batavia ❤️
thank you
I loved the interview! His life growing up was very interesting! I sure learned more about this man!
Maurice you and Jon hit this episode out of the Park.
Congrats Jon! As a fellow author I can't express how happy I am for you!
Thank you so much!
You sure have to be very talented to play a dual role! I'm so glad Marice addressed his GH character!s Kevin and Ryan! That's why I say he is brilliant! He never got the two characters mixed up!
Jon is a combination of strength, mystery, brilliance, modesty and beauty. Always had a crush on him.
You are both such amazing men and actors!!! I adore you both!! ❤️
❤️
Thank you for your openness to share your life experience . I lost my younger brother due to mental health issues. Blessings to you Maurice for a heart to help others🙏🏻
Thank you! I’ve been “through it” my entire life and am used to it, but my husband is going g through it now very badly and is unrecognizable… I don’t know how to help him, until now. I will show him this episode and hope it will make something g click. Thank you❤️❤️❤️
Great Discussion with Jon! You never know what people are going through! I had a similar battle back in 2018! Thanks, Maurice for all you do! ❤
❤️
Had the pleasure of seeing Jon this week, talking about his new novel. I was struck by his warmth and intelligence. We had a quick chat and he impressed me with his sincerity. Looking forward to digging into the book, HOLLYWOOD HUSTLE.
❤️
Thank you for everything you’ve helped me ! And so many others 🙏
I am ready 🙏🏽
Jon, excellent episode of State of Mind! Thank you for your raw truth and emotion as well as your empathy. I truly admire you and your talents as an actor and writer! I was diagnosed at 39 with severe depression and anxiety. I am now 66. I’ve tried a number of antidepressants and still have depression more now than ever. ❤
☮️
I feel your pain. Know that you are not alone!!
Thank you Maurice for this excellent platform!! ❤️🌹
one of the best interviews yet!
Happy Sunday guys! Love to hear your stories
Same to you!
One of my favorite interviews...both of you so natural, open and giving. Thank you.
Thank you both !!!!!
Two wonderful, brave, excellent actors and men. We love you Maurice and Jon❤❤
Love watching you Maurice. Great seeing Jon being so honest. Bless both of you. ❤❤
This was awesome! Thanks for being so raw and honest❤️
Always!
Love Jon. Classy man. Great interview.
What an amazing person and actor! Cant wait to read his book!
Brave, Strong, True, these are words that describe this episode the most!!! The words that are the hardest to say make us free and give strength to others.
What an incredible interview, it’s so great to learn about what someone else has been through. Jon is a great actor, love him on GH. And the information on suicide is so important. Thank you Maurice for all you do ❤
Loved this interview and Jon’s honesty. He is one of my favorites. I hope “Hollywood Hustle “ DOES become a movie. It’s that good!
I hope so too!
❤ Great conversation between two of my favorite actors on GH! Thanks to both of you!😊
Our pleasure!
Very good interview. So many of these "sessions" take me back so many years ago. Almost like being a therapy session.
Happy Sunday!!! What a great episode!! Love Jon Lindstrom and Maurice!! Will be picking up Hollywood Hustle this week!!!
I really like Jon Lindstrom.. I've been a fan since Santa Barbara!!
Thank you @maurice and Jon for sharing mental health stories with us. Depression and the way you describe it with the black cloud is spot on. Thank God your mom sat you down to share the family history. It's so important to talk to our kids so they have an understanding and can be aware. Depression and anxiety is truly an epidemic and knowledge for coping skills is a life saver! Thank you!!
Please let Jon Know, I loved his story. Ive watched General Hospital since Blackie&Noah drakes days.. Loved Kevins Character.. My grandpa died from drinking&driving which led to my uncles gun suicide. People must talk about these issues. My mom didnt tell us this until our teens.. It shaped her&her sisters lives. Immensely..
This caused her & her sisters to quit drinking.
Bad things, lead to great improvements in my generation.. You make your families life, better..
I wish that I could meet Maurice Bernard I just purchased your book sir and it is very inspiring inspiring you are one of my biggest Heroes sir
Thank you both so very much ❤
Thank you too!
Wow! You just never know...beautiful honest interview. Tears followed by smiles. Thank you both.❤️❤️
Wonderful Interview! Thank you
This is marvelous. Had no idea it existed until now. I am new to GH. I got hooked six months ago, placing it on to keep my mother busy as I sit with her(Alzheimer's dementia). Now I have my wife hooked. And of course, Mr. Benard(Sonny) is my favorite watch. At 57, I did not think I would be watching daytime stories, but there is something wholesome and comforting about it. I am a true fan now. Thank you for everything.
One of the best episodes of SOM ever!!!
I respect and admire Jon a great deal. Thank you for having him on your channel and speaking so frankly, you both are an inspiration ❤
Many of my friends at NYU studied at the Strasberg studio and hated it, too. 😂😂😂
Other friends studied with Stella Adler. They had to stand and applaud every time she entered and left the room. And also HAD to call her "Miss Adler".
(And, apparently, Stella Adler and Marlon Brando had more than a student/teacher relationship.)
She was, however, an amazing teacher.
Thank you for your openness and your statement about suicidal thoughts. At the time it really does feel like the best option for everyone.
There's a post on RUclips that was posted just this morning about what living with long-term mental health issues feels like. Dr. Scott Eilers.
Dr Kevin Collins is the real dude at GH. He is informed about the stuff he works for GH. I love both Maurice & Jon
Love Maurice for saying its so important to talk to people about suicide thanks maurice n jon for Being So Open on State of Mind n its so True it Helps many people Around the World Do Great Maurice❤
Another amazing interview, Jon is one of the best. Thank you for getting him on! I ❤ the jersey & red is a terrific color on you. I'm sorry about your 49er's, I truly thought they would take the win😢
Our pleasure!
I love Jon Lindstrom!!!❤❤❤ He is such an incredible actor. I know it all Lucy' dream later. But on Port Charles, Jon was awesome!!! Also smoking hot🔥🔥🔥
I'm a long time fan of GH too!!!
❤️
I really enjoyed this interview. Thank you.
❤ your show so much!
A fabulous conversation with two of my favourite actors on GH. I am currently totally absorbed in Hollywood Hustle. A fabulous read and I do agree it would make a great movie. Get your copy everyone.
Excellent interview! Jon's story about his history with depression and potential suicide was so moving and realistic. The family history of suicide and how it can run in the family is very true, and that is why it is important to share that history to make sure that it doesn’t repeat and youth can learn from it.
Also, Jon's personality is SO interesting and engaging in ways very different from Kevin Collins. I keep saying this after watching these interviews with GH actors here: the writers need to inject the vibrance of the actors' real personalities into their characters.
thank you
Great Episode Maurice Again You Brought It Like You Always Do God Bless You And Your Family Stay Safe!😊❤
Thanks so much
Thank you! ❤
Love the show, Maurice & Jon
Great Interview!!! Jon is one cool cat. Maurice thank you so much for your platform and helping so many people. I too, like too many others, contemplated suicide. Prayers to all who suffer with mental health or any other health issue, that has brought us to that dark place, to those who have passed and those of us who have fought through these rough times to work our way towards the light 🙏
I appreciate that you talk encourage your guests to talk about their success and their struggles and that they feel comfortable enough to do it. It lets us see their humanity and not the character that they play on screen. I like when they speak from their head and from their hearts.
Great show! Loved learning more about Jon ❤
Yet another SOM where I want to say This was my favorite interview! I’m just waiting to hear that you’re nominated for an award for State of Mind!!
from your mouth to gods ears
Thank you both for saying all of it because I really needed to hear this Blessings to both of you and your beautiful family ❤️🙏🏽
JON LINDSTROM - I feel your pain. Rough times for those of us who suffer. I cry all day long, sit in sunshine, suffer alone. For me it's the time of year and not being able to shut my mind off. You are a wonderful person for sharing your private self. I love watching you on screen, I live for my GH at night I watch on HULU. I follow Maurice because of his unique conversations with his peers. Your candor was refreshing. I am in Maine, I have been a viewer since the beginning. You are an amazing actor. Playing two roles must have been demanding. Hang in there, I will respond if you want to share the horrors of hiding deep depression. Or just talk...please know that you have been a great source of entertainment in my lonely world.
I’m 25 yrs old and have the biggest crush on Jon❤ even in his early days on gh he is so handsome 😊
❤️
@@MBStateOfMind what’s a girl got to do to get her copy of nothing general about it signed?
An awesome state of mind, once again ❤🙌🏼🔥
❤️
Thank you for such a wonderful interview ❤
I would watch Jon everytime to see if he messed up playing the twins. I am happy to report that this guy played or portrayed two different people. It was maddening at times. Kudos to Mr Lindstrom. I love State of Mind. Thank you Mr Benard.
This was so great! Thanks for sharing.
This was fantastic! Thanks for what you do, Maurice. Mental health and all aspects of it are definitely something that needs more light shed on. I've struggled with anxiety and depression since I was a teenager and just knowing that other people deal with these issues really helps. Thanks again 😊 ❤
🎁
Thank you Maurice for all you do
Just added Hollywood Hustle to my audible playlist 😊can’t wait to listen to it 👍👏
In an anxious episode, it's hard to ground or breathe fully. Everything's like racing on hamster wheels and you're floating and then being torn in many different directions. Hugs to both of you. Coming out of these things isn't always quick and never easy. You're not alone no matter how desperately the lying depression or anxiety tries to convince you.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you for sharing
Jon Lindstrom is amazing!!
