"Because of this high stress and very traumatic experience I was advised then ultimately connected with multiple therapist and psychiatrist I had a few private meetings and this particular drug that was suggested although maybe helpful to others had an adverse effect on me and this is the reason I had a complete meltdown online."
The 38-year-old actor had been posting odd messages via social media following the demise of his marriage to Norma Gibson that left him hospitalized.
He added: "I'm in the clear now, this is being flushed out of my system and I'm already to get back at 100% - please don't chalk this up as 'oversharing.'
"A lot of people were effected by what these meds did to me over these last 2 months and this is my public apology a few I will make personally I'm so very sorry guys - please guys just know again this is not the Singer, actor this is Shayla's father........... This will NOT compromise my case...."
Gibson also urged other people suffering from mental illness to get help.
"This is transparency and honesty and more of a suggestion, please seek professional opinions when it comes to drugs especially psychiatric meds. We all need to be still and preset in the Lord and he will deal with your fights and reality. Praying for you guys, and Pray for me and my family ! Love You TYRESE, " he said.
The star is no longer being investigated over claims that he beat his 10-year-old daughter Shayla.
