Robert, you are honoring your son by talking about him and giving us a chance to get to know this incredible man. Maurice, another great, heartfelt interview. Prayers 🙏
thank you
Maurice & Robert, Thank you for this. ❤❤️🙏🙏
Thanks Maurice for having Robert on and Thank you Robert for talking about your son. Sounds like he was a great person.
Maurice, you've probably saved someone's life and don't even know it. Maybe, even MANY lives.
☮️
I am so glad that Robert was able to talk about Luke...it seems like he needed to do so and you could hear the pride and the love he has for his son. I'm so thankful he shared him with us because it makes Luke real to all of us, and he just seems like he was such a unique and loving person. I am sorry for Robert's loss, but Maurice, you did a solid by letting Robert share him with us all. Love, hugs and blessings to you both. This was a beautiful episode of SOM. Thank you!
❤
I agree.
I ❤ Robert Gossett and wish Marshall Ashford would play his clarinet again !
yes
EYE LOVE THIS GUY - EYE RELISH EVERY MOMENT I SEE HIM ON GH - HE REMINDS ME OF THE STELLAR ACTORS OF THE PAST ON TV!
❤
Thank you so much for sharing about your son, Luke, Robert. What a beautiful soul he was. I’m so sorry you lost him. I’m glad to know you’re getting counseling to help you deal with your grief. I love watching you play Marshall on GH. Thank you Mauricio for having Robert on. ♥️
You are honoring :Luke, Robert! Thank you both for your awareness of this! it's so, so vital!!!!
❤
Thank you Maurice & Robert for sharing your stories. ❤❤
Our pleasure!
Thank you Robert for being so open and honest about Luke. The stories you told about him had me smiling about how caring and loving of a child you raised. You really touch my heart with this story of your sweet son. When you got to his adulthood, my heart broke for you as tears ran down my face. I couldn't image the pain as a mom of two beautiful children. To hear you tell this story, let me know how my mom felt when I was struggling about deciding to letting go. As you see I asked for help, instead. Thank you, Maurice for having this platfoam for everyone of us.
Thank you so much
@@MBStateOfMind You're welcome ☺️
I'm glad you had the courage to ask for help, not everyone does. Kudo's to you and many blessings.
@@Chegles1 I appreciate your words. ☺️
God Bless you, Robert Gossett. Thank you for sharing your son Luke with us... He lived. He will be in your heart forever. The stories you shared about him, help him to live on. I pray that you will find healing and the knowledge that you are loved beyond measure. I am very sorry for your loss, Robert..
God Bless you, Maurice - you program shares truth - you are not afraid to speak about what needs to be spoken about. Thank you for this.
May you both go forward today knowing that you are making a difference in people's lives.
Thank you.
So sorry for your loss 😇🦋🦋🌹🕊️🙏🏼
Great Interview! I’m a big fan! Thanks so much for sharing your story, Mr Gossett❤
Good afternoon Maurice and I thank you for state of mind.👍❤️❤️
You are so welcome
Robert, ur son sounds sooo very special. A beautiful soul who was here long enough to touch everyone and anyone who needed it. Iam so sry for ur pain and ur loss. Just know Luke is in a beautiful place free of any pain or anxiety. It’s us left behind who endure the pain. Thank you for sharing the incredible human ur son is.
❤❤❤❤❤
I was close to my older sister & older brother & I miss them so much, but I know they're not hurting any longer than b/c they're up with Jesus. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I love Robert Gossett as Marshall. He is one of my favorites. Such a great actor.
I feel like this conversation with Robert is not over. I want to hear more from this man as I feel like he has just touched the surface. I have to comment on something Maurice said....not everyone gets themselves into therapy. He is so right about that and I would be one of those people. I believe that every human being needs therapy because we are all broken, it's the nature of the human condition I have chosen to go in the Spiritual direction because I believe that all our solutions are Spiritual. I admire the courage of those who choose to go into therapy. My husband has been in therapy for a lot of our 56 years of married life and I admire him for it. All that said, please Maurice have Robert Gossett on your podcast again, I need to hear more from him. I am now a big fan of his and will look forward to watching his segments on GH. To see him put some of his personal life into his acting will be exciting for me. My heart goes out to him.
Yes! I would love to hear a part 2❤
thank you
Awesome conversation today! It hits all of us in different ways. God bless you Robert and Maurice for State of Mind.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you Robert and Maurice. What beautiful memories you shared. So sorry for your loss. Glad you’re open to counseling. Sending loving prayers.
Your talk with Robert today was beautiful. His son was enlightened beyond years. ❤
❤❤❤
It amazes me how these two are able to play the roles on GH and hold it together. Maurice and Robert touched me to the core and I have great respect in their craft. Robert I'm so happy for you as you've sought help to
traverse the loss of Luke...yes, Luke lives🙌🏾 My prayers go out to Robert's wife also😢
thank you
Hang in there, Mo. Our ego seems to be our own worst enemy, an enemy always nipping at our heels. God bless you, brother.
❤
Thank you for having him on and letting him share his story. I hope you can have Robert on again just so we can learn more about him.
Awesome!!! Thank you for this!!! Mo and Robert you don't even know how much this helps all of us!
Oh Maurice. I'm sorry you went thru it. 😢
Oh my heart aches for the loss Robert is going through. Mental illness is slowly becoming something people aren’t ashamed of and can finally open up about it. My granddaughter was diagnosed with bipolar at 22. Thank you both for sharing this & I pray you reach someone who needs to hear that they aren’t alone. You may have just saved their life. God bless you both! ❤
thank you
Mr. Gosset, we went through the struggle of our daughter attempting to take her life. She didn't die. But the guilt and pain we went through was horrible. I know your pain is so much deeper. Please be kind and easy on yourself. My deepest condolences and prayers are with you and your family. You sharing his story and yours will help others.
I get it Mo...Eckhart Tolle is my go-to also when I'm feeling anxious or things are getting to the point of spiraling. His words have been so comforting and embolden me to soldier forward. His books resonate with me along with your podcast. Both have been such a comfort to me. There were Tuesday's with Morrie but then we have Sunday's with Maurice...I can't even imagine the pain of losing a child. I have so much empathy for people who have gone through that unimaginable pain. Thanks to Robert for sharing his story...I lost my older brother to suicide. It was much like Robert's son. My brother was a member of MENSA, extremely high IQ. Bright, sensitive, gentle person. But nothing saved him from his darkness...we were blindsided as a family. We never saw it coming...🙏😊💕✨
thank you
I was brought up crying was a sign of weakness. 😭😭😭😭 So I had a hard time letting things out. Now I know it’s not true but I still have a hard time just having a good cry.
☮️☮️
Thank you for your message of the struggles. I have a grandson just about to turn 13 who has been struggling with thoughts of suicide since 11. He was an inpatient for 16 days in adolescent psych ward at age 11. Being the youngest person in that ward, he now suffers from PTSD & so much anxiety. He's seen therapist ever since. He was bullied since 1st grade & in 5th grade wanted to die. What has saved him in middle school is the theater. He's a wonderful singer, singing on the praise team at church and is a great actor. His meds are now working so praise the Lord!😧🙏❤
Robert is so great! This interview was so emotional and wonderful ❤. I love him on GH. Thank you again Maurice for all you do ❤
Love this State of Mind.. Great conversation.. I can relate. . I hid my Bipolar illness for years.. No one ever knew.. I wasn't diagnosed til I was 39.. Had many episodes from my teens.. But only when I was alone behind closed doors.. I was very smart and fooled everyone.. But thank god for my meds today.. I've been good for 18 years.. Thank God.. God Bless you Maurice for doing State of Mind
thank you
Thank you Maurice.. God Bless you.. I appreciate your pod cast so much.. I recommended a friend who has the same diagnosis as you.. She loved today's State of Mind as well.. ❤
I have such respect for Robert. He is so open about the most painful thing a parent could go through. I wish you mushroom peace and healing.
A parent's love never ends & it is seeping from every pore of him
Thank you so much, Robert, for sharing your heart with us. You are truly helping others who have walked similar paths. A burden shared is a burden lifted and your Luke is smiling. May you continue to heal and grow. So glad I found State of Mind. Thank you, Maurice, for all you do. GH is our daily watch too, of course!
Happy Sunday God bless❤
Thank you gob bless😂
Morning
You can see the love in Robert’s eyes he has for Luke❤️thank you for sharing. Keep talking!
Good Morning Blessings ❤️🙏🏽☕️
This episode really shook me because your son sounds just like my son, who killed himself. He was honorable, sensitive to people's feeling, so creative and content to be by himself. I think they were empaths. And feeling everything so deeply was just overwhelming. Chris was extremely creative as well. It is heart crushing to loose a child like this. So sorry for your loss.
Thank you, Robert for sharing your son with all of us. I’ve been watching Maurice’s podcast for some time, and this was the best interview in all of the ones I’ve watched. So informative and enlightening. Thank you for sharing.
Robert thank you for sharing a part of your story. Maurice thank you for having a platform to learn from. RG, you are definitely honoring your son and representing others as Maurice is too❤. I want to talk about the PAIN. Silent pain is just as explosive as desperately searching for medical help in relieving pain.
I loved this. My uncle killed him self. He was the youngest of 10. He was in pain that he would get so high so he couldn’t feel it. The night he died I called my dad. He’s the oldest boy of the 10 he went to his house so my cousin wouldn’t have to do the whole ordeal alone. I’m so sorry that Robert is dealing with this loss. You are a good friend Mo to him and that’s what he needs as well as you. I’m thankful my friend seen me having mental episodes and told my husband so that I could be helped.
Great topics for the show. Ego and loss. They are big ones.
Another heartfelt podcast. Thank you Robert for sharing & honoring your son. You truly helped many many people to read the signs of behaviour of their loved ones. Thank you Maurice
So sorry for your loss Robert! 🙏 Luke sounds like a beautiful soul!
Probably my favorite State of Mind yet! Talking about this we have lost keeps their memory alive. We honor their lives. I appreciate the love and pride shown as Robert spoke about his sons.
Just when I think your chats can’t get any better, Maurice, they do. This one will save lives, I’m sure of it. First noticed Robert on The Closer and Major Crimes. His work on GH and his tremendous honesty talking about Luke just make me respect and admire him even more.
Thank you Mr. Gosset! Keep saying his name.
Thank you Robert for telling us about your Lukie! He souds like a wonderful soul.
This was a great episode. Robert expressed his profound love for his son. I’m glad he could talk to you and you were a great help to him. My deepest condolences to Robert.
My two fav guys! Robert is a joy to watch on the screen and he never fails to make me laugh!
Thank you for sharing your son with us.
Thank you Robert for sharing the story of your son Luke!❤ It reminds me of my twin Grandsons who are young now (7), but may need to be evaluated!
Robert, my condolences to you on the passing of your cousin Louis Gossett Jr. today. He was a great actor, and he was a good guy period.
One of the most heartbreaking inspiring insightful and vulnerable interviews I’ve ever seen. So thankful to Robert Gossett for sharing this the memories of his son with us 🙏🏽💜
But know you will see your boy again. Tell God to send him a message that you love him and will be looking forward to seeing him again.
Thank you Robert for sharing your pain about Luke. Thank you also for talking about Caleb. Both sons, both treasures in your life. Maurice is so right in saying EVERY conversation about mental health struggles is very important and necessary. Each conversation gives permission for the next conversation. We share your profound loss while also celebrating your other son, who may struggle at times too but is on a different path. I will say a prayer for you and your family every day that you find acceptance that Luke felt his path to peace was the one he chose.
Robert, thanks for sharing your beautiful son. So sorry for the tragic loss, you are braver than you know ❤
Robert, your we can't know why your son suicided. ❤ thank you for sharing your own experience of wanting to keep this private, and then deciding, instead to let your beautiful son be experienced through you. I relate deeply to how your son's comfort level increased around people who showed their struggles. We soothe our own pain through acknowledging the pain of others. God bless you on your healing journey, Robert. ❤And Marshall is a scene stealer on GH! Much love and peace❤.
I Can’t wait for this, Maurice!
🙏🏻🛐🛐🙏🏻God Bless
You Both!♥️♥️🦋🦋
Thank you both💙🙏🏽💙
Thank you for sharing your amazing son Luke's story. It will help others and it honors the man he was. I am so sorry for your family's loss.
He knew how to mask it. My granddaughter is going thru it now. The saving grace is she talked to her therapist and made her aware of how she was feeling and at the end of her rope. My heart hurts for all suffering thru this.
Robert you are a wonderful man and dad .. I’m sure it’s still difficult and will be foreva to be handling your son , Luke’s , departure from this world, your world , but as Maurice said , talking about him surely helps and he sounds like a super sweet man , one day at a time Sir .. love you as an actor and listening to you on State Of Mind …. It’s a great platform .. God bless 🤍
Robert I hope you see this. Sympathies regarding Louis, he brought so much entertainment to my family. Thanks for the memories. 💔
Awesome and heartfelt interview, thank you Robert and Maurice, God's blessings.
❤
Robert thank you for sharing the wonderful memories of your son, Luke. Thank you both for bringing awareness ~ it’s so important. 🙏♥️
Thank you so much for this episode. As an actor Robert is a wonderful actor. This personal pain he is experiencing hurts so profoundly. His son sounds like he was an amazing person. What a loss to the world. I wish peace for Robert and his wife. And I hope Luke is at peace as well. ❤
Thank you both. 🥲
Happy Sunday And awesome guess
Words can’t express…..you both were so good! Robert, thank you for sharing Luke’s life with us; you honor him by telling his story and it will help you to heal! 🥰 God bless you both
You are very brave for talking about your loss. I am truly in awe of your courage and thank you for sharing. You and your family are in our prayers. ❤
Thank you guys for this very touching interview. Peace be with you all
My deepest condolences for your loss Robert! Luke was an amazing light in your life you can see the kind of man he was from the light in your eyes as you talk about him. Sending lots of love and prayers 💐🙏❤️
Mr Robert Gossett thank you for sharing your story and honoring your incredible son. You and your family have my deepest sympathy.
I wish I could have your courage. Wonderful show. ❤
I attempted 12 times (9 of those within 3 years) … I hid my emotions well, & I know many who have done the same. I could go into more, but, I’ll just say, medicine can make one person worse and another better; mine made me worse. I have severe PTSD (from MST). Finally getting the proper medicine and treatment changed my life. Also, when I was attempting suicide I never truly wanted to die, I just wanted all the pain go away (military injuries & traumas). I know I’m not alone in this.
God Bless you for your loss Robert Gossett. My prayers are with you and yours.
Oh yeah, I lived in Costa Rica a couple of years ago; I m sure he loved it there.
Robert Gossett, I'm so sorry for the loss of your son, may he rest in peace. Today we find out that you have now lost your cousin Louis Gossett Jr. So sorry for this loss as well. Louis was a wonderful person and great actor. He will be greatly missed. Thoughts and prayers for you and all your family.
Thank you for bringing up the ego, we all need to hear this right now. This is what is plaguing all of man kind and it looks different in everyone. Amen to you
Wow Maurice, another stellar episode...Robert is such and amazing guy, once again thank you for everything you do brother...my one request is to please try and get Maura West on this show, she is my wife's favorite on gh... big hugs brother!!
This was a great conversation. I appreciate you both! Keep bringing awareness to the world. Much love!❤
God bless you, Robert. I pray you find peace in the Lord. He is the answer to all of your questions.
Great show always a fan you always keep it real
Sunny this interview was so amazing. Robert, God bless you. So much I want to say, but I can’t because I had surgery on my right shoulder. Keep talking about your beloved son. 💙💙
Robert, God bless you and your beautiful son Luke! No shoes, Jesus!
This was such a great episode and i had no idea that Roberts son passed and i am so very sorry for his loss. What a beautiful way to honor him by sharing with all of us his incredible life. He sounds like he was such a beautiful young man. And i just loved what you told him about how there was no way he could have known. Coming from you i believe it and i hope you were able to ease Roberts heart and he believes it too. What a powerful episode this was! My love and prayers go out to Roberts family during this difficult time ❤️🙏
So sorry for yr loss! Glad you can talk about it! God bless you 🙏 and your Family! My condolences ❤
I felt every heartfelt emotion with both you, Maurice and Robert! All good emotions, really loved this episode! I love what you do to help people going through mental illness!! 💖 With love always Maurice ! ❤️
Hi papi, just want to say I like your show and someone that also suffers from mental illness so I just want to say is keep up the good work you're an awesome advocate thank you.😊
So very sad. I am sorry for your loss Robert.
I am soo sorry about your son taking his life! I just lost my son 8 weeks ago
Hello I’m glad you’re on the show. You’re such a great actor! I’m longing for more story lines with you!
I have chills listening to this , I’m so sorry for your loss , nothing worse than losing a child , I know 😢, grateful for this channel ❤️
Wow! That was quite an enlightening powerful story. Maurice what you are doing is so heartfelt and beautiful. Really happy you are still succeeding with saving people by honoring peoples experiences including yours. I am truly touched and proud of you. I'm a huge fan of GH. Watched GH for 10 plus years now. I'm a type 1 diabetic for 21 years now and anxiety and depression has followed me my entire adulthood life. I'm 41 and I've been seeking online podcasts such as State of Mind and I'm watching a show called Therapy in a Nutshell and I'm beginning to learn some things about myself that I didn't realize and last week I had a mental breakdown . I dont have those very often. Since December 2023, I've been hitting rock bottom and luckily my boyfriend encouraged me to fight even after we lost our beloved pet that was basically our son passed away in March. He was only 7. Best cat son I ever known and I was his momma and he adopted us so it was really hard to let him go even after I was approved for financial support to save him, but we had to make the hardest choice a parent could make, and when grief hits and work was stressful, the anger and depression, loneliness , angst, and confusion just caused me to do things or say things in the heat of the moment that I'd never do. My problem with keeping emotions bottled up inside is when multiple catastrophic events such as a root canal, longer time off work cause of being sick from infection, and stressing out about a multitude of too many things to handle at once and with grieving over my cat , it just exhausted me and everyone around me. anyways I love watching your show and I am so happy that Robert was able to open up about his son with all the emotions he was feeling. I wish him well and I know that his son would be so proud of him too,as I know my cat son whom I miss terribly will be with me in my heart always and I have to remember the good times we spent together as a family. Opening up about life is never easy especially the really bad times but in the end we just have to take better care of you, ourself and know that we are not alone.
Great interview. I know you have helped many people with this talk today-me included😢. Thank you.
Robert, your son Luke sounds like he was awesome young man. I love that he stuck up for Luka who was bullied. So many times in history, victims of suicide are not ever talked about; but its important that they are remembered. Because they lived just like you said. Whatever pain he struggled from; he is with Jesus now in Heaven. You have shown honor to your son, and he would love the stories you shared about him - and his shoes. So cute. Thank you Maurice for the state of mind. d - in Oregon
Thank you so much Maurice!!! 14 years ago my husband killed himself and your love your show.and the great work of Gh has sustained me and kept me sane
I know how it feels to lose a child it's hard I had lost four but GOD is good he sent me three beautiful daughters
I love the story line, go Stella the passion, Kevin was perfect, thank you gh…..
Robert thank you!!!! So much 💕to you for sharing Luke’s story and you’re journey! So grateful ❤
So right. He lived and he touched others.
