disquietude

Disquietude refers to a state of unsettledness or unease within a person's mind. It is a feeling of nervousness, worry, or mental discomfort when you're uncertain, anxious, or disturbed by something. Unlike outright fear or panic, disquietude is more subtle, manifesting as persistent restlessness or a nagging sense that something is off. It can be triggered by various factors such as concerns about the future, unresolved issues, or internal conflicts. While often temporary, disquietude can affect your focus and emotional well-being until the source of the unease is addressed or resolved.
