- Synopsis
- 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.
