Impressed?

According to the meaning I found on Google about "impressed". It's said

"feeling or showing admiration or respect for someone or something."


However, if I'd like to mean I'm "impressed" by something so much but it is NOT positive, I'm not showing admiration or respect for someone or something, on the contrary, I hate it, but I cannot forget it. What is the adjective to use?
