In my experience, it doesn't. If you have a good support system/good and supportive and compassionate friends in your life, it gets easier. At this stage when I don't think I even deserve that, it's been just as good to have. I feel lucky to know the people I do, and I make sure to tell them that as often as I can
In terms of what you can do to make someone's time here better and easier: just do that. Just be a good friend. Smile when you know someone you cares about needs to see a smile, be there when you think someone you love needs you or just needs to not be alone. And just try to make this life easier to deal with. Because g*d knows you're not going to find many other places, people, or situations that will do that instead. Don't wait for someone else to make that move or to do the right thing; it's an easy gamble to lose and it only does harm when lost
