troubledness
State of unease
The state of being troubled—experiencing distress, worry, or agitation.
Troubledness captures an ongoing condition rather than a passing moment: Her troubledness was evident in the way she couldn't sit still.
The word is uncommon, with "distress" or "anxiety" typically preferred in most contexts.
