This came up during an architecture class five years ago, talking about the tricky thing about making memorials (especially Holocaust memorials), since younger generations build up a resistance to the anguish of the older generation. It’s “something fatigue”, and I’m pretty sure it’s a four syllable word with the cadence bah-bah-BAH-bah fatigue.

Compassion Fatigue checks out in Google and on the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust site. Also try museum fatigue. Vicarious Trauma also seems to show up often.
