A word that combines shock, hurt and indignation
Is there a single word that combines, shock, indignation and hurt one feels at the sheer callousness of someone's conduct or apathy towards something/someone?
I was hurt,shocked and appalled by his callous conduct.
A single word to replace the above feelings. An idiomatic phrase also works, and if there is conclusively no word that encompasses the entire plethora of emotions,it is acceptable.As is a word which is archaic and no longer in use.
If I were to pick any 2 out of the 3 emotions expressed here, I would pick a combination of hurt and appalled.
Solution 1:
I think "offended" would work, but I'm not sure it captures "shock" very well. Perhaps "horrified" is a bit better? Oooh, or "aghast," which I think conveys a nice combination of shock and horror. With "aghast" the hurt is implied; No one is aghast and pleased at the same time.
Solution 2:
Aghast. Speechless with jaw-dropping horror at the shattering of decent and reasonable expectation.
