To me it's not weight, but a greyscale filter on life. This greyscale filter is always there. Sometimes it feels stronger, sometimes it feels less strong, but it never fully goes away.
So I'd say: this.
In a way I sometimes feel the same thing, but it's like I'm outside everything that's happening. I'm not present, just watching others having fun like I'm in another dimension or behind a thick greyscale wall.
By greyscale filter, you mean like a feeling of numbness?
In a way, yes.
I can relate to this.
