Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Spiritual distress often manifests as feelings of hopelessness, signs of depression, and anger towards a higher power or God, as these emotions can indicate a struggle with faith or spiritual beliefs during difficult times. Reading the Bible (C) can be a sign of seeking comfort or understanding in one's faith, rather than distress. Requesting a visit from a member of the clergy (D) can indicate a desire for spiritual support or guidance, not necessarily distress.
