- MoE Revised: "1. 害怕。如:「在這麼陰暗的房子裡,心裡總覺得毛毛的。」" (https://dict.revised.moe.edu.tw/dictView.jsp?ID=29196)
- "(adj.) spooky; creepy 害怕的感觉" with the example "这房子好暗,我(心里)觉得毛毛的。This house was so dark. It creeped me out." (https://www.youtube.com/live/3_UyZ5ONT2U?si=NVtHnej-fVlu1FF8&t=1132)
- "令人“毛”骨悚然," "“毛毛的”是指汗毛(因恐惧、惊慌等)竖起来的样子😃," "有说法叫-心里发毛,就是怕怕的感觉。用来形容虽然没有事情发生,但是很害怕。" (https://hinative.com/questions/18338013)

This sense also shows up in Key and Wiktionary (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/毛毛).

I included the 的 in the headword based on MoE & Key, and 毛毛的 does seem to be predominant (e.g., 心里毛毛地's ~11,300 Google results vs. 心里毛毛的's ~119,000, and some of the former use 地 simply as the equivalent of 的). I did find a few examples in which 毛毛地 occurs adverbially, as in "当时是自己的移民业务严重萎缩,持续很长时间都没有了订单,心里【毛毛】地发慌,又一时半会无法找到其他工作。" (https://vocus.cc/article/62a3f727fd897800017bfb01), though, so I wasn't sure whether it would be better to have 毛毛的 or just 毛毛 as the headword.

Other possible glosses might be "uneasy," "on edge," or "unnerved."

「我的高血壓、糖尿病藥都吃了好幾年了,如果突然換藥,就算是同成份、同藥效的藥物,還是覺得心裡毛毛的」

盧孳豔舉例,不論是「天天5蔬果,癌症遠離我」,或「蔬果彩虹5-7-9」(每日各色蔬果攝取量兒童5份,12歲以上女性及男性各為7份及9份),都在聽似簡單、實則簡化的口訣公式裡,額外創造出「不吃蔬果就會罹癌」的恐懼。「有民眾每天擔心是否吃足5種蔬果,如果少吃一種,心裡就感覺『毛毛的』。」

「當時我的心裡也是七上八下毛毛的,但是我還是決定豁出去了,」
