World-weary

describes someone who is emotionally tired, sad, or cynical because they’ve experienced too much of life’s troubles. It’s not about needing a nap — it’s about feeling worn out inside.

Examples:

1- The detective’s world-weary tone made it clear he had seen far too many tragedies.
2- After years working in refugee camps, she looked world-weary, her eyes reflecting stories too painful to tell.
