==Effect==
===Persona 3 / FES / Portable===
Units inflicted with Distress have their evasion rate dropped to zero, and have their defense lowered. They are more likely to be hit by Critical attacks, and are more susceptible to Insta-Kill skills such as Hamaon and Mudoon.
Initiating a battle with Shadows significantly weaker than the player's party may result in the Shadows beginning the battle afflicted with Distress.
===Reload===
A combatant with Distress has their attack decreased and their evasion negated. Critical hits are more likely to land on them. Distress is removed when the combatant is hit with any attack.
Shadows get Distress at the start of a battle if Shock Noise is in effect. They may also get it if Ambushed by the party.
