Abstract
Over the last few decades, conceptual confusions have been observed in the context of approaching the concepts of fear, panic, anxiety and anguish. Anguish, which focuses on present events, is accompanied by a feeling of tightness or pain in the thoracic region and, because many patients with affective and anxious disorders report this experience, the feeling of anguish has thus become the target of great concern. clinic. The present study investigated the existence of differences between patients with anguish and patients without anguish in terms of symptomatology and comorbidities, and whether patients diagnosed with depression and patients with an anxiety disorder have more anguish than patients who are diagnosed with depression do not have a diagnosis of depression and anxiety disorders. The investigation concluded that anguish is slightly more associated with depression than anxiety, being more frequent in females, and that the most frequent comorbidities among patients with anguish are somatization, fears, depressive mood, gastrointestinal and neurovegetative symptoms.
