irritating

Another option

It depends on whatever follows 'enervante'.
You could also use other adjectives depending on what it is referring to!

Please note that \'enervate\' only means:
deprive of vigour or vitality

and that in Spanish \'enervante\' can mean two things:
enervante.
1. adj. Que debilita o quita las fuerzas.
2. adj. Que excita los nervios o pone nervioso.

So we really need the noun it is referring to!
