Anguish; hardship (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

distress

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'anguish' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'hardship' is the second definition.
(distress is a kind of hardship)

(Other definitions for distress that I've seen before include "State of suffering" , "Pain, trouble or sorrow" , "Pressure of pain or sorrow" , "Anguish - trouble - danger" , "Adversity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
