There’s a kind of emotional fatigue no one warns you about. The kind that doesn’t come from your own life, but from carrying the weight of everyone else’s. News. Crisis. Updates. All the time.
You think awareness is the responsible thing. But eventually, something shifts. You stop reacting. Not because you don’t care, but because there’s nowhere left to put the caring.
I found a reflection that put that feeling into words. It doesn’t offer solutions. Just resonance.
Have you felt this kind of quiet saturation? When your empathy doesn’t disappear, it just stops fitting inside you?
Oh, I’m with you in this. I’ve been trying to stay away from social media. All of the news and posts are mostly negative and it wears on you. I’m trying to put blinders on and focus on what’s around me
