B
Withdrawal is a common response to illness. The individual removes himself from others and refuses to interact. The other options are also common emotional responses to illness: anxiety is described as feelings of uneasiness and apprehension; shock refers to an overwhelmed feeling with inability to process information; and anger is an emotional response that may be directed inward or outward.
