Hi can you guys help me?
I'm looking for a word or phrase that describes the feeling of looking at something that incites the absolute worst feeling of hopelessness and despair humanly conceivable?
I'm not talking about painful emotions just like an uncanny valley kind of emotion. Like that silent alarm your brain sends off when you see stuff like pic related. I'm being general on purpose because all it's gonna be is the name for a character in a story.
