I don't have anyone to ask this.
I don't know if life is like this for everybody, but I'm always on the brink of falling apart. Is this right?
Somehow, things got worse almost one year ago. Reading a book, watching a show or listening a sad story is affecting me too much. I couldn't finish 1984 because of the atmosphere and I had to drop One Hundred Years of Solitude after the death of a character. This never happened, I always finish the things I started and I used to be so calm, but it's like I have a weight on my shoulders now.

Maybe you have lots of empathy? Or can feel other peoples pain? I know more people that feel like that.

But this is killing me, really. It's like a weight.

Does it only apply to litterature or life in general?

Everything. This is what is fucked up. I used to be a rock.
Have you tried therapy?
Honestly, it seems like there are more and more young adults are like you.
Sad, really. I guess you will be the first to die or become a slave when war comes.

Sounds like you're depressed, m8. How old are you? Pretty much everyone goes through a "phase" around late teens/early twenties.
