Answer:

The correct answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answers A and B are too extreme; something which is troubling is only uncomfortable. Answer D is incorrect, because his recent (real) troubles probably did not involve him turning into a creature. Therefore, the correct answer must be C.
