Is there a German word for that moment when you realize that most main characters in movies and tv shows are around 30 years old, and that you are older than that, almost old enough to be the dad of the character?
The word could be MUFFICH ("Ich fühle mich MUFFICH!"). Means something along the lines of: In a bad mood, offended, old, not fresh anymore. Smells (MUFFICH clothes). Stale (MUFFICH biscuits). (Source: http://www.mitmachwoerterbuch.lvr.de/detailansicht.php?Artikel=muffich&Eintrag1=1810)
"He looked out the window. It was raining. A dog barked in the distance. Suddenly, he started shaking. There it was again, that deep feeling of schmerzy-something."

I was looking for something a bit more fancy -- a word created by Freud or someone like that, with more letters in it, like Weltschmerz.

Schmerzy-something (twenty-something, thirty-something...)
Sein-zum-Tode (Heidegger)
Now we're talking!
