Troubled fool has rushed around (8)
I believe the answer is:
harassed
'troubled' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'fool has rushed around' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'fool' could be 'ass' (both can mean a stupid person) and 'ass' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'hared' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for harassed that I've seen before include "Annoyed and troubled continually" , "Distraught" , "Pestered continually" , "Constantly tormented" , "in a state of torment" .)
