Overwhelming fear (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

panic

'overwhelming fear' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for panic that I've seen before include "Alarm - terror" , "Fear out of sixteen ac" , "Grass" , "Contagious fear" , "Overwhelming feeling of fear and anxiety" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Sun.
