B. mood

C. post traumatic stress

D. schizotypal personality

Answer:

Cordelia is experiencing a post traumatic stress  disorder.

Explanation:

Posttraumatic stress disorder is a psychiatric malady that can transpire in souls who have encountered or observed a traumatic incident such as a natural hazard, a severe accident, a terrorist action, abduction or other drastic personal assaults.

Manifestations may cover flashbacks, illusions and relentless anxiety, as strong as stubborn views about the event. Characters with PTSD have deep, unpleasant thoughts and emotions related to their practices that last long after the traumatic event has ended. Ladies are double as believable as men to own PTSD.
