The two words that are most nearly opposite in meaning are "thirst" and "chaos."
"Thirst" refers to a strong desire for something, usually water or drink, while "chaos" refers to a state of complete disorder and confusion. The connection here is not straightforward, but they can be seen as opposites in terms of calmness (thirst) vs. disorder (chaos).
If you're looking for similarity, "turmoil" and "chaos" are more closely related, as both refer to states of confusion or disorder. However, based on your question for opposite meanings, "thirst" and "chaos" would be your pair.
