You have two states in the timelines of your life.

You are either suffering and it will pass, one way or another.

Or you're not suffering and at some point in the future when you're suffering again, you will look back at the moments you weren't suffering as "the good old days."

If you're not currently in extreme mental or physical anguish, you are living in your future's good memories, no matter how bleak it seems. If you are in extreme mental or physical anguish... this too shall pass.
