Opis

Two weeks before his college graduation, Kelley Clink s younger brother died by suicide. Though he d been diagnosed with bipolar disorder as a teenager and had attempted suicide once before, the news came as a shock and it sent Kelley into a spiral of guilt and grief. After Matt s death, a chasm opened between the brother Kelley had known and the brother she d buried. She kept telling herself she couldn t understand why he d done it but the truth was, she could. Several years before he d been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, she d been diagnosed with depression. Several years before he first attempted suicide by overdose, she had attempted suicide by overdose. She d blazed the trail he d followed. If he couldn t make it, what hope was there for her? A Different Kind of Same traces Kelley s journey through grief, her investigation into the role her own depression played in her brother s death, and, ultimately, her path toward acceptance, forgiveness, resilience, and love."
