unremitting
Without any pause
Unremitting means never stopping or letting up.
The word typically describes something burdensome or negative that continues without pause or relief: unremitting pain, unremitting pressure, unremitting criticism.
An unremitting effort is sustained and relentless.
The word carries more weight than simply continuous—it emphasizes the absence of any break or respite.
