Woman, finally, gets money to sibling exhibiting psychological distress (8)
I believe the answer is:
neurosis
'psychological distress' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both states of affairs as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'woman finally gets money to sibling' is the wordplay.
'finally' says to take the final letters.
'gets' says to put letters next to each other.
'money' becomes 'euro' (currency of the Eurozone).
'to sibling' becomes 'sis' (short for sister).
The last letter of 'woman' is 'n'.
'n'+'euro'+'sis'='NEUROSIS'
'exhibiting' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for neurosis that I've seen before include "Trouble in mind" , "Mental disorder of resinous origin" , "Mild mental illness not caused by an organic disease" , "So insure against the nervous disorder" , "Resinous sort of mental disorder" .)
