Listitems I have felt at least once before finding this: 7/8 Listitems I have known the name of before finding this: 0/8

How about you?

Also… what’s the feeling called when reading something, thinking ‘that sounds totally made up’ - then doing a quick google and realizing its actually a thing?

    I’m German, too. From Germany.

    And I disagree with your interpretation regarding cause and effect. First the sadness exists - you can also call it social burnout or depression. Second the feeling of being drained causes you to cancel stuff, for reasons you make up - causing you to be even more depressed in the long term. A feedback loop.

    We’re talking about two different things. Both fit the definition above.
