Wiki: Anguish is a term used in philosophy, often as a translation from the German Angst. It is a paramount feature of existentialist philosophy, in which anguish is often understood as the experience of an utterly free being in a world with zero absolutes. In the theology of Kierkegaard, it refers to a being with total free will who is in a constant state of spiritual fear that his freedom will lead him to fall short of the standards that God has laid out for him.
Example: The newspaper told of the mothers anguish at the death of her son. He is in anguish over her child. She takes a new lover while he is in anguish . Adele watched her friend with dismay. Large tears flooded her face, she could not suppress this scream of anguish and pity: Oh! Mary! poor Mary!. He hid his anguish with a smile.
