this phrase is used as an attempt to delude one self that one will be alright with time. it's to give the impression that the pain one is currently going through is temporary when in fact it is permanent and will only get worse with time. often times, one is actually aware that nothing will ameliorate in the upcoming week. and should it, it would be a fleeting "improvement"
this phrase can be said to some else when they ask if you are okay, in order to avoid talking about the actually problems your are facing which are now pushing you to the brink of de-aliving yourself.

The sooner we get to it; the sooner we’ll get through it. — A faux positive statement to lighten a heinous situation that will stick with you for the rest of your life.
1) Police homicide photographer documenting the scene of a mass shooting at an American high school:

Well let’s go: The sooner we get to it; the sooner we’ll get through it.

2) Family cleaning out a closet after the death of a loved one:

Well let’s go: The sooner we get to it; the sooner we’ll get through it.

3) An American citizen voting for president in the 2024 election that will determine the destiny of our democracy:

Well let’s go: The sooner we get to it; the sooner we’ll get through it.

This and other techniques like this are taught in cults and at Harvard University. No, I’m not kidding Harvard has a Hap-y-ness Studies Program. It’s designed to control populations and foment political overthrow. They’d “like to teach the world to sing — in perfect harmony.”

See Mad Men series Finale.
