Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
The sentence suggests that after the acute phase of humiliation and self-blame, there is a longer phase that is marked by something else. The only option related to emotions or psychological reactions is phobic reactions, which could be a common symptom after a traumatic event like rape. Therefore, D is the best answer. Options A, B, and C are not supported by the sentence.
