Existential Fatigue: Life Feels Heavy for No Reason
Understand why life feels heavy despite no major problems.
When Being Alive Isn’t Light

There is weight without drama, mass without story.
This does not mean something is wrong—it means existence is being felt honestly.
Naming it releases the demand to frame heaviness as failure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why does everyone act like being alive should feel "wonderful" and "light"?
This is the "Lightness Demand." We are Removing the Requirement. Modern culture pathologizes "Heaviness." In the Meaning Density Model™, we legitimize the "Darker Density." Being alive isn't always light; sometimes it is Dense, Substantial, and Serious. By removing the demand for "lightness," you stop the Shame-Loop of "Why don't I feel better?" You are allowed to be "Heavy and Healthy."
What is the benefit of being "Heavy"?
Heavy things are Unshakeable. A "light" identity is easily blown away by the wind of change. A "Heavy" identity—one that has integrated its gravity—is Stable and Rooted. By inhabiting your heaviness, you gain a "Structural Gravitas" that allows you to remain centered during storms that would shatter a "lighter" person.
