Been a fan since she played Greenlea on One Life to Live. Really miss seeing her as Hayden on GH. 🥰🥰🥰
Actually, you mean All My Children
You mean Greenlee on All My Children
❤
Sarah, it was All My Children.
It was All My Children
Maurice good evening.I wish Rebecca would come back on GH . Maurice I thank you for state of mind .👍❤️
Good morning!
Nice name! Great name!!!
Bring Hayden back to GH. Violet needs her Mama.
I know the cast is bloated,but I wish they would have Liz's 3 siblings in cameos.
@@cocoaorange1 Who is the third sister? I can only recall Sarah and Hayden
@@NakeshaMooreshe doesn't have three sisters she has two sisters sarah and hayden and a brother steve that's what they mean.
@@sarakennedy2633 ahh that makes sense. I always forget about Steven Lars, lol. Thanks for the correction!
@@NakeshaMoore of course!!
Rebecca loved you as Greelee on AMC and Hayden on GH. Thank you for sharing your story about Post Partum Depression❤
What a Phenomenal Human being you are Rebecca!! Your talent is limitless and the spirit you've given to your characters is sorely missed!! Meeting you at Super Soap was a great event for me!! Wishing you much success in whatever you do, wishing a GH return will be a possibility in the very near future!! Thanks for doing State of Mind🙏🙏💗💗
❤❤❤
Loved Rebecca on all my children and on gh as hayden
Rebecca thank you for talking so openly about Post partum. You are truly, an amazing person! ❤️
Rebecca is a truthful honest person and a wonderful actress...Thank You Maurice for interview this lovely beautiful lady....
Thank you so much for sharing your story Rebecca. Truly inspiring and impactful. It reminded me of when I couldn't breastfeed my daughter how I blamed myself so much and I was so hard on myself because I felt I couldn't give what she needed. This conversation impacted me on so many levels. Again, Maurice Bernard I thank you for bringing state of mind to us.... its very helpful to many on so many levels. Love you both.
You are so welcome!
Love her as an actress. Her eyes and smile are killer. She still looks 20! Miss her on All My Children and GH. Gotta bring her back to mess with Drew and Carly because of the history with Cameron
I recall her as Michelle on GL. She does not look 20, but she has aged well.
Really miss her!!! Thank you for being so open I almost had tears people forget how hard post partom is!!! So strong
Rebecca; you and Josh were amazing on AMC! I was so wrapped up in your characters at the time. Amazing on any soaps I’ve seen you in. Thank you Maurice for this great channel and bringing guests such as Rebecca here to bring awareness. I recall having postpartum depression after my first baby. I had no idea why I was crying at the drop of a hat when it should have been the happiest time in my life. Thankfully I saw my Dr before the “normal” 6 week checkup and he knew immediately what was going on and he was able to explain that I had been through such a high risk pregnancy and it all was catching up with me. I was so glad to know it wasn’t abnormal or alone; I felt so isolated. I was put on a small dose of an antidepressant and it eventually worked; was able to go back off after awhile. Wow; hearing Rebecca talk about her personal story was amazing. Again; thank you Maurice! You matter more than you realize! ♥️
I connect with Rebecca regarding post partum....I had my son at age 19 in 1970....I sobbed in secret.. I failed at nursing and I couldn't connect with my baby....no one seemed to care about me .. only my child. I played a good mother in public but didn't feel that connection for years! Back then, I couldn't admit it to anybody. It is very real and debilitating.
Thank you Rebecca for addressing post partium depression! Alot of women are dealing with it ! Some of them are sweeping it under the rug! You are a gem Rebecca God bless you 🙏
I’m SO happy that you’re having different guests, who have different levels of mental illness, issues! Thank you Rebecca for sharing!
All I can say is, "POWERFUL"! So many need to know that it's OK, share your feelings and hopefully saving a life. Thank you both for a POWERFUL SOM.
I met this lady when she was living at 277 West end Ave in New York. One of the sweetest, humble and down to earth person I've known.
Such an important topic! Thank you, Rebecca, and Maurice for having this forum for all of us to understand we're not alone.
Thank you
I loved her on All My Children ❤❤❤ she is so beautiful
This was a great State of Mind, Maurice! I have been a huge fan of Rebecca Budig since she played Greenlee on AMC!
Thank you for shedding light on this topic. ❤🙌🏼
You are so welcome!
The part where you spoke about how your baby or your family could save you but when you feel as if you are a burden to them, that's when it gets harder with the possible suicidal thoughts. And when Rebecca spoke about shame, I understood that. No matter what your mental health concerns are, whether it be postpartum depression, anxiety, PTSD or whatever, getting help is so important. And having places to go like your podcast Maurice helps so much. Especially for those who may not have access or funds to pay for it. Just knowing you're not alone means so much. I had some postpartum after my daughter was born because I had a past that included a teenage pregnancy/abortion situation and after that a sexual assault/rape situation. I had not had any therapy for any of it. I managed to get through it but not always very well. Jump to decades later I finally sought out a good therapist with the help of my husband and grown kids. I had some dark days but I knew I was loved and they never made me feel as if I was a burden to them. I was blessed. Many people out there are not. Thank you for this interview with Rebecca. It was amazing. ✨💌🤗...*and I agree, acupuncture is so incredibly helpful, I swear by it*.
Great Episode Maurice Again You Nailed It Rebecca Is Amazing She's Beautiful Thanks For All You Do You're A Gem 💎God Bless You!
Maurice you continue to be blessed by those around you
Thank you 🙏🏽 you are a truthful friend
Rebecca thanks for sharing your life experience
I'm so happy to see her again 💓.
Love Rebecca!! Her and Kendall were awesome together. Really loved your character on GH with Nicholas.. hope you return to GH eventually..
❤❤❤
Your GH daughter needs you! Loved seeing you again. Loved Greenlee. She was my favorite of all time. Where can we see your film on Post Partum depression?
Yay, so happy to hear the good News!
I absolutely love listening to you Maurice....you are the strongest, most open person I have ever watched. Keep up the good work!
She is true Kentucky girl!
Nothing Ohio about her!
❤️❤️❤️🙏🏼🌞
Great show!
Thank you!
She said she spent time in Cincinnati.
She is an Ohioan thru and thru. She was my best friend at Miami University and we met in Zoology class. We had so much fun together. I would visit her when she moved to LA. I met Marky Mark when she did the workout video for him, lol. Unfortunately we fell out of touch. She looks exactly the same.
Maurice you are loved by so many. Thank you for inspiring so many humans in this world
I always LOVE my state of mind!!! As usual, this episode was amazing!!!!! I was the same, not wanting anyone to make a sound while she was sleeping! My diagnosis of severe anxiety made my anxiety goes off the charts. Still now 😮💨. Thanks, Maurice, for this ❤️❤️❤️ Micheal Easton.... come on, please!!!
Thanks for another great show. It's true postpartum depression and anxiety isn't really talked about and so many women go through this all alone like I did. Love and Hugs!!!
Thanks
Thank you Maurice for a Powerful conversation with Rebecca. It's so important to talk about your situation . Mo, you're The best 😘😘.
That was an amazing episode! Thank you for sharing.
Postpartum is hard! You don’t want to have people think you are inadequate! It’s supposed to be a happy time but it can be very isolating! I want to see her film.
You two reallyVIBE!
Love it!!
I’m so glad she is sharing her story. I had PPD on top of PTSD from a traumatic childbirth experience, and my son was premature. All of this compounded that first year, along with my immune system was shot from it and I was sick with everything from pneumonia to Mono. When my son was 5 months old and he started screaming every time we tried to breastfeed, and I was already struggling with my supply, I just started to spiral. My son is 7 now and I’m just starting to feel like I’m fully out of it, and that took a ton of medication changes, therapy, OT, and even non traditional therapies and treatments for depression and anxiety. Just hearing Rebecca’s story, and feeling the pain she is still experiencing, is hopeful knowing that I am not alone in my experience. I have wanted to start a blog to document my experience and what I am still doing to work towards my mental and physical health so that I can maybe help or inspire others.
Beautiful conversation with beautiful Rebecca Budig. I was so sorry to hear about her pain. Much love to you both.
Just now getting to watch this. I lived in Northern Ky for many years(I was a Realtor there) and my family is still there. Now I’m north of Cincinnati few miles. N Ky is a nice area to live. Many people are transplants from other areas in the nation.
Thank you both for such a wonderful conversation. These things need to be said.
Miss her on General Hospital
Great talk. I experienced postpartum depression too. I can relate.
This was a truly amazing state of mind
I enjoy seeing Rebecca ! Great actress! I remember her on One life to live ! I wish they would bring her back as Hayden on GH. I ENJOY YOUR INTERVIEW WITH HER! THANK YOU MAURICE 4 HAVING HER ON!
She was on All My Children not One Life To Live🙂
Great interview! Rebecca is so down to earth!
Thank you for opening up this discussion. It’s so important to so many women who are suffering in silence. You are also so right about the pressure about breastfeeding, it can make it more challenging than it needs to be. 💖
GOOD INTERVIEW MAURICE 👍
Catching the replay 🫶🏾
Very good conversation about Postpartum! They had no idea what was wrong with me when I had my kids 34 and 39 years ago! My daughter in law also suffered from it and they have 5 kids and the last were twins. It is really tough! ❤ Love Rebecca
Oh this state of mind was great! The question, did you go to the zoo hit super hilarious 😂Loved the big variety of conversations. I don’t know what I would do without SOM. It’s something to look forward every week. I am so grateful that it helps my anxiety. I applaud Rebecca how she kept plowing on through her post partum. And shared it all with us. Way, way, way back when I had it, it was kind of a hush hush thing. Thank goodness I got through with it with help from my friends tho. Thanks again, Maurice for doing what you do to help so many people with various mental health problems. Have a blessed day. ❤️
Thank u beautiful
Very interesting conversation. I was never able to have a baby. But I've been around a few friends that had problems after having a baby. God bless you both 🙏 ❤️
Thank you Maurice for sharing your experience ,life it really has helped knowing mental illness is not a life ending disease,we just need the right people to help us
Great Interview, beautiful beautiful talk!! Thank you Maurice for State of Mind.....
saying thoughts outloud to you. Hugs to Rebecca
You are so welcome
I wish this video was longer!! ❤️❤️ Much love & respect to Rebecca!!
I love love Rebecca she’s awesome!!! You think you could get Debbie Morgan “Angie” from All My Children
You are both making such a difference with sharing your personal experiences. Thank you!
Beautiful chat with a beautiful woman! I have always felt Rebecca was a strong woman and this conversation proves it. I’m confident she will help others through this interview.
Used to watch her on AMC. Loved her character and miss that show.
What a wonderful talk. Postpartum is no joke. Back 35+ years, we weren’t allowed to have these feeling. Thank God for people like Ms Budig to give us a platform. Thank you Mo, such a great segment. GBU
BEAUTIFUL!!!! Oh how I wish she would come back to GH!!!!
Fantastic interview with Rebecca Budig love her and Maurice very inlightening!

What another awesome interview! So glad you talked about that! For year’s during the pandemic was thinking it was my depression and anxiety and kept switching meds. Found out it’s been because of post menopausal! These subjects are very important! Thanks for all you do! Thanks Rebecca for sharing! Columbus Ohio! ❤🙏🏻💜

Thank you!! We live in Dayton!! Not far from where you grew up!!
Love this lady. Love you and your show Maurice ❤️👍. GH needs to bring her back soon before Violet grows up❤️😥
Thank you for sharing Rebecca's story. She has helped so many women today. Thank you Rebecca for what to said in this interview. There are women who probably hide from what you talked about . We must help each other. It's the only way we can survive these days. I'm sending you and everyone watching much love.
Wish she come back to general hospital
YEEEEESSSSSS!! Christmas in March.......but reminded me instantly of Kamala when she opened with that laugh - omG
I bought your book today Maurice and im watching state of mind from Colorado
Although I'm not from Cincinnati, I live here now and know people who attended or taught at your high school. It really is a treasure. I'm glad it gave you such a great start toward the work you are doing now. I'd love to see Hayden come back and give GH a grand surprise. And, thank you for sharing such a personal perspective on what you experienced after the birth of your daughter. Your kindness, authenticity and generosity will help those who are dealing with the same thing.
Another great interview they need to bring back hayden on gh
Yes
Thank you Rebecca for bringing this stigma to the light. I too struggle with post partum and have struggled for a few years. It's been a rough road and appreciate hearing others stories . Thank you thank you ❤️
Thanks 😊
I've always loved Rebecca. So happy to see her on here . Miss her on GH. Another great show Maurice 👏👏👏👏👏💓I'm so happy she shared her story. It's a very important topic that needs to be talked about. Prayers for all the women that are experiencing this. God bless 🙏❤💙
I'm still in a perpetual state of grief & mourning over my son. I had depression very badly. I didn't want to exist. The death of a child is death to the soul of the mother. When I was blessed with my second son (miracle child), I wanted to be happy but I wouldn't touch him. I didn't want to get attached to him, in case I lost him too. Then when I wanted to engage with him? I felt so guilty, as if I was betraying my 1st son. I carried that feeling for over a decade. I still feel lost some days & it hurts. I'm like a lost...depressed mother who is constantly searching for her lost child. It's hard but I'm trying to find my way out the grief that's plagued me since 2002. ☮
I love Vanessa! I didn't have post partem, but women in general go through a lot when they have a baby, I had trouble around breast feeding that actually all worked out after I called the La Leche' League. My mother didn't breast feed us, so her advice was not sound at all, she told me that my being upset might spoil my milk, not true, and that something was wrong when the baby didn't poop at first, wrong again, they don't when they are breastfed because their body uses everything. Also she said the baby should be on a schedule of feeding every 4 hours, and with breastfeeding it is 2 hours and sometimes less. Your supposed to feed when they are hungry, not wake them up to feed, or really set a schedule. Also I was not prepared for how attached emotionally you are to your baby, and how you can have anxiety, as well as the baby when apart. I imagine a lot of what you experienced was very common, you just didn't know it. Like when it felt like the baby didn't want you, it was most definitely her responding to your anxiety. Babies need mom on a very fundamental level, no matter what. I did really well on my next 2 kids. And prevailed with the first one, just hard at first. Good show! I would like to know if Hayden on GH is really still alive? I think Victor has her!
Loved this woman for a long time! So miss seeing her on screen! ❤❤❤😊
This is by far and number one hit interview. Thank you. Thank you for sharing your stories. I have been there myself.
Thanks
Terrific session and I’ve always loved her. Please don’t bug Michael as if he’s not comfortable we should support him in that 100%. You don’t like pressure and obviously he doesn’t as well.
Bring her back to general hospital I miss her she is such a great actress
Hi Marice hope things are going for u and yr family! I wish you would try to get Robert Kelker Kelly on state of mind! I loved him on GH. PLEASE GET HIM ON IF YOU CAN! THANK YOU 4 ANOTHER GREAT INTERVIEW 👍
Wow! Rebecca, thank you for sharing your life with us! This was so raw, yet so beautiful! I’m glad you found your way! God bless you! What is the name of your film?
You are so welcome!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
I'm late watching. I was so happy to see her on! I love her!! It killed me when she talked about her post partum. Omg! 3yrs?! 💔😥
2 months is to long. It broke my heart for her. I loved her so much as Greenlee on AMC. Was ecstatic when she came to GH. When I first saw her on AMC I thought she was so very beautiful & of course she still is. You can tell it still hurts when she talks about it. It's so heartbreaking. She had no help. 😢When she cried It tore me up. She probably had so much guilt & sadness during it. She did miss out on alot of joy. I have missed her so much. She is the greatest actress. It was so good to see her. My heart goes out to her for what she went through. Her little girl is so beautiful & you can sure tell how much she loves her on IG. So kool that she is close to Michael Easton in real life. She seems so sweet & precious, & I wish her so much joy & happiness. Thanks for getting her on @stateofmind Maurice. Great guest!❤
Loved rebecca in all my children and general hospital I also liked her in batman forever 💕💕💕
Maurice Rebecca is incredible she really expressed and revealed so much of herself .. my heart goes out to get Thank G-d she got thru it as difficult as it was .. as a woman who has suffered for so many years with depression i completely relate to her .. Maurice I love how you open up and relate to her with your tears .. we open up then we move on and stay strong .. I’m so grateful for State of Mind that you created ❤
she's a queen. such a whole model
You both are so amazing,I love you guys great actress, miss you on GH
I can totally relate to her on such a deep level. My second child, I dealt w/a little PPD, & went to therapy & was ok in about 3 or 4 months. My last child however - it lasted for 4yrs, & a LOT of mental trauma & feeling of being inadequate and a complete failure to not only her, but to my other two kids.
Something OB/GYNs do not brief you with is how much the breast feeding is pushed & that was a lot of my problem w/my second child. I didn't even try w/my 3rd, but the looks the hospital staff gives you, as well as how the pediatrician guilt trips you is insane.
Thank you so much, Maurice, for doing this one - more ppl need to learn, & those of us who have gone through it need to know we're not alone, or an anomaly.
I really think it’s awesome that Rebecca put out her story . And the flim that she’s made that’s coming out. I had my son and I was so happy because it took me so long to have a child, but I cried all the time for like a month . I know mine was nowhere near as bad, but when you’re going through it, you don’t know when it’s going to end. Thank you Maurice for having her as a guest and thank u Rebecca for sharing your story.
Was so deep.shed tears.thank you so both for sharing.
Thank you for a great show☺️❤️
GREAT interview!! THANXKS so much!!
LOVED, Leo and Greenlee!!! 2nd best couple after Sonny and Brenda!
Rebecca was fantastic in her real-life story of postpartum. Her beautiful daughter wasn't the problem it was the thoughts. Great show, Maurice
She truly is an ageless beauty 😍. So talented
I have to watch her film. This was a great interview thanks for sharing
Good discussion 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Another good one like always. Thank you both.
