To determine which idea the evidence supports, it would be necessary to analyze the specific evidence provided in the text. However, if the evidence indicates that psychiatrists were taking steps to manage public perception or were concerned about their practices becoming widely known, then option B ("Psychiatrists knew their secrets were being exposed and were trying to do 'damage control' to repair their image.") would be the most fitting.

If the evidence suggests that psychiatrists were unable to manage their patient load effectively, then option C could be supported.

Ultimately, without the actual evidence from the text, I cannot definitively determine which response is correct, but you can evaluate the options based on the nature of the evidence presented.
