I can tell you from personal experience regarding mental health that it does get easier, in time you will make it.
I think that is what Dylan was getting at, the below poem, in my opinion was not just about death, but about life as well, don’t just wither away and die.
Never give up.
No more searching inside the well of excuses, The well will always be full, The bucket will always be empty. Plenty, There always is, Plenty of time to waste, Until there isn't. Only hindsight, Forever hindsight, Forever waste. No risks, No trying, Only excuses, Always tomorrow. Comfortable tomorrow, Cozy as a sock, Warmed and woolen wool, Perched comfy, Fat cat comfy, Old lady winter comfy, Dying. Perched on this comfortable not so well and worried wall. Time stalks the blind, Always remembering, Ticking on. Listen close, Hear the tick and tock, Ticking and tocking, Time, Mine, Yours, Ours, Chiming the excuses away, Today. Excuses that line the hindsight wall, In regretful jars, Made forever by forever facing mirrors, Reflected Into the eternal void of, I, wish and had. Through hands and open fingers the heart and life slip back, Back to the stars, The repeating seed, The grain, The ended dust, Where the only three that matter exist; Before, Once, Never, Into the perpetual always yesterday, Now all rear views, And lumps in the throat.

I am the vampire in your life, causing the pain and supplying the strife.
Sucking the marrow from your core and helpless soul,
Taking your life,
And consuming it whole.
No cross nor spike, nor illumination light, will help you against,
My worry, my pain,
My plight.
I am the vampire who takes control, contorting and reshaping your helpless soul.
So,
Hold your bible close, say your prayers, you’re in this nightmare now,
With all my worries,
With all my cares.
Alas,
The vampire you see is not me, it is a mirage of the man,
I used to be.
And feed I will on your burning light,
Consuming and fading,
Your inner might.
But stay strong, resist my will, fight back and battle still.
The night is long,
As they say.
But have faith in me,
And bring back the man,
I used to be.
