Questions & Answers about ตลาด ที่ วุ่นวาย ทำให้ ฉัน อึดอัด ค่ะ

Why is ที่ used after ตลาด here? Doesn't it mean 'at'?
While ที่ often means 'at' for locations, here it acts as a linking word meaning 'that' or 'which' to describe a noun. So ตลาดที่วุ่นวาย translates to 'the market that is chaotic'.
How does ทำให้ work in this sentence? Can I just use ทำ?
ทำ by itself just means 'to do' or 'to make' a physical object (like making food). When you want to say a situation 'causes' or 'makes someone feel' a certain way, you use ทำให้ (literally 'make give'). Here, the market 'makes' (ทำให้) me uncomfortable.
What kind of 'uncomfortable' does อึดอัด mean?
อึดอัด specifically describes feeling stifled, suffocated, or cramped. It is perfect for a crowded, chaotic place, and you can also use it when your clothes are too tight or when a social situation is mentally awkward.
Since this lesson is about เยอะ, where could I add it to say the market makes me feel 'a lot' of discomfort?
You can place เยอะ at the end of the action or feeling it modifies. Saying ทำให้ฉันอึดอัดเยอะ means the market makes you feel 'a lot' of discomfort. However, with emotions and feelings, Thai speakers also very frequently use มาก (very/a lot) instead.
