Answer:

C. without the freedom to express themselves, people can become mentally ill.

Step-by-step explanation:

The story of the yellow wallpaper is that of a woman, who is the narrator of the story, who is suffering with post-birth depression after giving birth to her first child, her husband who was a well respected physician diagnosed her with hysteria and prohibited her to write and to have any expression and she starts to loose her mind because of that to the point where she is sure that there is a woman trapped in the yellow wallpaper and she needs to take her out of it.
