I think people might say this so as to make themselves feel better. Or perhaps it's a (bad) shortcut for "oh that sucks, I hope it will get better".
> I'll never be completely free of suicidal thoughts or medication side-effects. I will never be free from degree of pain and suffering many people don't understand.
I'm one of the people who don't understand, but I think there is at least some distant theoretical possibility it will get better?
> I try to make the best of it.
"Sometimes we don't get to choose the role we play, but we always get to choose how well we play the role."
