Over the past 2 years, I've seem to have lost my ability to filter things out. Not only do I feel terrible (sometimes to the point of inactivity) when anything bad happens in my life even on minor scale, but I now start to feel terrible when bad things happen to OTHER people. As though it affects me personally somehow.

Depression isn't the sadness, depression is your body's inability to recover from sadness. Seeing other people's hardships might be stacking on yours entrenching you deeper into a state of constant negativity.
