Eh. We are so far away from being able to revive people after cryopreservation that it’s comical. You need the ability to rebuild an entire body at the cellular level. And if you have that kind of godlike medicine, a lot of other things are possible as well. For example, a society with such medical knowledge is probably way better at treating depression. Whatever nanobots or other Clarketech that is doing the rebuilding can simply cure a patient’s depression.
And as far as the whole “stranger in a strange land” paradigm that comes with finding yourself in the far future? The same tech that would allow someone to be revived from cryo would also give that society clinical immortality. If you can rebuild cells shattered by ice crystals, you can certainly repair the damage caused by aging. Reversing aging is trivial compared to revival from cryo. So if you get frozen and do somehow manage to wake up in the far future, you would have an endless amount of time to become acculturated to your new surroundings.
Imagine wanting to die so bad you actually do it but then you wake up in a world where you feel even more out of place.
