I think they call it existential crisis. It is a form that effects some people who are more outward looking.
The world will most definitely end one day. Not in our life times or anytime soon. Someday the sun will explode.
Whether we matter or we make any difference in the big picture I think depends on your spiritual beliefs. A pure materialist we say the only thing that matters is the gene pool and the continuation of the species. Or an atheist might think that what matters is the difference you make in other peoples lives or the legacy you leave behind.
