Others have mentioned you are probably pushing too hard. My 2 suggestions as someone with the same problem:
1. Before getting a new pen, you need to train yourself to write lighter. I would suggest practicing with a 0.5mm mechanical pencil; the lead will break if you push hard. When I first did this, I broke the lead at least once per sentence.
2. Try a few gel and/or rollerball pens. They tend to lay down ink with less pressure than ballpoints. Fountain pens do so as well, but tend to be more expensive and require more maintenance. I bought maybe a dozen different recommended rollerball and gel pens that were under $5 each, tried them out myself and then loaned them all to friends. We each liked different ones the best but liked all of them better than a cheap ballpoint.
