Looks like
shocked

⚠️ The trap
Borrowed directly from English. Perfectly natural in modern Italian. Older/formal Italian uses 'sconvolto' (devastated/overwhelmed) or 'sbalordito' (astonished).
To say "greatly disturbed or disgusted" in Italian:
scioccato (anglicism, from 'shocked')
"scioccato" in English means:
shocked, deeply disturbed by something unexpected
Example
"Eravamo tutti scioccati dalla notizia dell'incidente."
"We were all shocked by the news of the accident."
