Chapter 52: Grandma’s Secret Recipe for Bad Days

<p>What do you do on the days when getting out of bed feels impossible? This episode talks about depression through a very special memory: the afternoon my grandma offered to teach me our family’s legendary Caesar salad recipe. Learning that recipe one slow step at a time taught me a lesson I now want to share with anyone who’s struggling. </p><p>With a little help from The Perks of Being a Wallflower, this episode talks about why depression is never your fault, how you are so much more than your illness, and why the love you show yourself matters. Some days, the only goal is to take the next small step. And if things break along the way, you can always start again.</p><p>Copyright © 2026 Cecilia Isabel Gonzalez.
