disquiet
This term describes a subtle, simmering state of tension rather than an acute panic. It suggests a lingering disturbance of peace or a quiet internal agitation that persists over time, often associated with a premonition that something is wrong.
As a noun, it is typically treated as an uncountable mass noun. It describes a general atmosphere or a psychological state, meaning it does not take a plural form and cannot be counted with numbers; instead, it is measured by intensity or described using adjectives like deep or growing.
