An explanation to my VJ friends

[GaryC 7]

Thank you all for your support. I thank God that Luz hung in there for me. I also thank God for my friends here. I understand that the side effects and the severity I experienced is a rare thing but I can tell you it is very real. I didn't understand what was happening to me. I am normally a rational, logical and focused person. But one day I woke up and felt like a different person. I couldn't sleep, I was having very weird thoughts and I just KNEW that Luz wasn't going to get her visa. Luz would tell me something and an hour later I could have sworn she said something totally different. When the effects started to subside I was searching for a reason for my abrupt behavior change. I was taking my medicine and I saw the insert that came with it. There it was in black and white, everything I was going through right there as a possible side effect. I am just glad I got over it in time. You don't know how close I came to canceling the visa, quiting my job and ruining not only my life but the lives of the two people I love the most in this world- Luz and her son Robin.

Damn, I barely know you and that liitle sentence brought a tear to my eye.

Wishing you luck. You'll be together soon.

Well it sounds like a happy ending is coming your way Gary and Luz. I know it will come through soon. I had quit smoking just prior to starting the process and I ended up starting again, it is the most difficult thing I have ever tried to do. Like Luz says wait till she is there and will keep you occupied, I know my fiance and I are both planning on quitting once get there too.

Chin up it is all going to happen and I hope quickly for you now. And you are never allowed to leave again ok.

glad it is something that can be overcome.

if you really want to stop smoking... there are other ways than the pre-paid to doctor recommendation of drug use. what have you tried and what not? if you want help/suggestions/support... PM me n i'll get word to you. been over 2 yrs now quit.. not always easy still... but it is easier.

Were you gone? *winks*

Hey, chit happens.

Pull up a chair. Nothing's changed!

[Sheriff Uling 3]

DISAPPROVED!

GaryC has hereby been found guilty of emotional espionage.

Hence forth, the VJ ID “Iniibig ko si Luz forever” has been suspended. Therefore, the only way for GaryC to come back is to use another VJ ID. In addition, you are hereby summoned to issue a public apology to all of his loving support group on VJ (and not just to LuzyC) for putting us through this emotional rollercoaster. We have enough emotional turmoil dealing with this wrecked process. Not to mentioned, GaryC’s posts must now be approved by LucyC before they go final. These are our terms and conditions.

LOL!

Cheers!!!

p.s. – Welcome back!

Sorry for abandoning my job, which to slap the ####### out of any chopf##ks who started ####### in your "goodbye" topic. I kinda got distracted by freezing temps, bundles of insulation, and a buxom British lass.

Glad to hear all is better now.

This is a good example of why I despise prescription drugs.

At least it's all over now, eh?

Welcome back.

[Hilarious Clinton 452]

At least you figured out what was wrong!!

[Nizzy 1]

Hey Gary I totally know what you're talking about when it comes to side effects of certain medicines. It happened to me about a year ago with another pill where I was so depressed and was contemplating suicide. It was destroying my life and when I would tell others who were on the same pill they were shocked and had no clue what I was talking about. It turns out these side effects ARE rare but they DO happen. I'm just glad you realized it in time because we would miss you here on VJ.

[babybunny 2]

Hey Gary, why dont you send the rest of your prescription to some of the whack jobs that were speculating about your visa app. LOL

you all knew he was bull chittng. knowing his story did not connect the dots. its great he took the "BE A MAN " approach and told the TRUTH! his lye did not add up to nothing only added to speculation and debate.

the only WACK JOBS on VJ are the ones that call others WACK JOBS.
