A state of mind in which a person believes that the 'world is on their shoulders' and are unable to deal with what they perceive as endless problems.
From Atlas, the Greek God who literally bore the world on his shoulders. Try being that poor bugger.
David: What's up, Mandy?
Mandy: Everything.
David: Woah seems you have a major case of the Atlas Complex.
