    C.

    Right away in the chapter "My First Supper", Bly explains how she and the patients are ordered around, and talked to in a cruel manner. They are served terrible food, and are stripped, and forced to take freezing cold baths. The environment as a whole is abusive and unlivable, and Bly shows that is clear to tell after the events of just one day.
