Weltschmerz
The emotion experienced when a person realises that the real world will never be able to live up to their expectations, or when a person realises that their weaknesses have been unfairly caused by circumstances out of their control. It is an emotion very similar to sadness but can have a much greater long term impact upon an individual.
