Overwhelmed

When I saw my friend after a year, I was totally overwhelmed because he was completely changed. Make sense with the sentence?
  

Top answer

Overwhelmed sounds an odd choice here. Surprised fits the place well. The word sounds okay here I was completely overwhelmed seeing the crowd waiting to meet me on my birthday.

I am trying to mean 'Overwhelmed' too surprised that I was almost unable to recognize him. Still not good?

I think it is still not all right under formal style.

Native speakers will be able to add more to it.
