Wentworth Miller Tried to Commit
Suicide Before Coming Out: "The First
Time I Tried to Kill Myself I Was 15"
"The first time I tried to kill myself I was
15," he said.
"I waited until my family went away for
the weekend and I was alone in the house
and I swallowed a bottle of pills. I don't
remember what happened over the next
couple days, but I'm pretty sure come
Monday morning I was on a bus back to
school pretending everything was fine. And
when someone asked me if that was a cry
for help, I say no, because I told no one."
Miller continued, "Growing up I was a
target. Speaking the right way, standing
the right way, holding your wrist the right
way. Every day was a test and there was a
thousand ways to fail. A thousand ways to
portray yourself to not live up to someone
else's standards of what was accepted."

"We have chosen Sunil Babu Pant as our candidate to ensure the rights of gay and other minority groups," Ganesh Shah, general secretary of the Communist Party of Nepal (United), told AFP. "He will be the
first person to represent Nepal's gay
community."
Pant founded the Blue Diamond Society in 2001, the only gay rights group in Nepal. "Representing a sexual minority I will make sure the new constitution protects sexual groups, people with disabilities,
small indigenous castes and others," Pant told AFP.
Pant's election is a historic move in Nepal, a traditionally Hindu, caste-dominated and conservative culture.
In December 2007, Nepal's Supreme Court as ordered their government to extend equal protections under the law to their gay, lesbian, transgender and intersex
population
