She feels suffocated by her marriage to him.

You did not provide the options, but Mrs. Mallard is extremely unhappy and even somewhat depressed. She hates her husband, not because he is a bad man since he isn't, but because she feels as if she's been in a cage for so long and because she wants to be free. Divorce was not an option at that time.
