The defending champions find themselves languishing seventh in the Premier League standings, having endured one of their most troubled campaigns of recent times.
With only 16 wins in their 32 matches to date, United are on course to finish the season with their lowest points total since the Premier League's inception in 1992.
United's only remaining hope of silverware after Capital One Cup and FA Cup heartaches is the Champions League, where they face a testing trip to the Allianz Arena to face Bayern Munich after their 1-1 draw at Old Trafford in their quarter-final first leg.
Carrick revealed there is no avoiding the disappointment of the current campaign and claims United are ready to weather the storm to see a return to winning ways.
"It's horrible," he told the Daily Mail. "You go home after a bad result and you suffer more than most because it's our responsibility if we have not performed and got the result.
"You take it to the next game. You constantly ask questions of yourself. You have to face the public on the school run or taking the kids somewhere.
"It's not pleasant, but if you want to take good times you have to be prepared for the bad times."
Carrick endured the sting of relegation with West Ham and believes his experience of sinking to the second tier can provide inspiration for United to buck their current trend.
