Stendhal syndrome

I've suffered from this: Stendhal syndrome.

It's where exposure to works of art of great significance and weight -- or occasionally, exposure to spots of great natural beauty -- produce transient mental disturbance include anxiety and a sense of cosmic revelation.

Honestly, I think I get a mini case almost every time I step outdoors.
