The correct answer is - Alcoholism.

The excerpt has been taken from the story 'David Copperfield' written by Charles Dickens.

Mr. Wickfield is a lawyer and also a businessman who lives in Canterbury. David notices that Mr. Wickfield has a red complexion and his blood vessels were bursting out in his face. He showed all signs of a heavy drinker.

Mr. Wickfield became an alcoholic when his wife died at a time when his daughter Agnes was just 2 weeks old. He grew a fear in him of losing his daughter too and had an obsessive love for his daughter. To overcome his fear and obsession, he became a heavy alcohol drinker.
