Severe suffering (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

torment

anguish

'severe suffering' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for torment that I've seen before include "Severe physical or mental suffering" , "Persecute" , "Harass" , "Pester or tease unmercifully" , "Pester in a cruel way" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Telegraph, The Guardian, The Times and the Wall Street Journal.
