Altschmerz 

(n.) Weariness with the same old issues that you’ve always had - the same boring flaws and anxieties you’ve been gnawing on for years, which leaves them soggy and tasteless and inert, with nothing interesting left to think about, nothing left to do but spit them out and wander off to the backyard, ready to dig up some fresher pain you might have buried long ago.
Derived from the German word, weltschmerz. Welt means world, and schmerz means pain, so as a compound word, the combination, literally translated, means “world pain.”
I feel like altschmerz is taking over me.
