The phrase "when the weight of the world is heavy on me" means feeling overwhelming stress, burden, or responsibility that feels very difficult to carry. It expresses a sense of emotional or mental heaviness due to challenges, worries, or pressures from life situations. This feeling can make people anxious, exhausted, or hopeless as if carrying all the world's problems on their shoulders.
People often use this phrase to describe times when they are weighed down by difficulties or negative emotions and need to find ways to relieve the pressure, such as seeking support, letting go of things beyond their control, or focusing on what they can influence in their lives.
