I think it's just about life in general. Sometimes, nobody really cares about you unless you do something to get their attention. You only get what you want if you allow yourself to be exploited. Likewise, one could imagine how a depressed individual is entirely without help but is mourned heavily by a community which did nothing for them.
And this sucks. People living uncared for, not getting sympathy or doing what they want. But, like the song says, you're just going to live with it. You might be crying now, but then you'll get some water and take a few breaths and you'll just keep doing the same things you've always done.
'Me', in this interpretation, is a sort of general avatar of society. You just learn to accept that nobody really cares and keep on living, since we're programmed genetically to keep going until we die despite even destructive metaphysical angst. After all, everyone else (father, sister, husband) are still alive and going, even if they're all miserable too. Just suck it up.
