How the Umbrella Academy characters would react to their s/o having a panic attack. (can be read as platonic or romantic)

Characters included: Luther, Diego, Allison, Klaus, Five, Ben, Viktor

Warnings: panic attacks, mentions of drugs.

A/N: this is written by somebody who has frequent panic attacks, and I am so sorry if you do too <3

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

LUTHER

(I'm sorry this was the only Luther gif I could find)

- Bestie he panics too

- Like you start hyperventilating and so does he.

- Fr tho he's gonna be awkward dad mode and just pat your back.

(Y/N): *dying*

Luther: …want a biscuit?

- I feel like he just sits and talks at you until you calm down.

- As weird as it sounds, it is strangely comforting

- Will not bring it up in front of other people but will constantly be asking if you're okay

- Like Luther, he panics for a few seconds before rushing to help you.

- I feel like he had a ton of panic attacks as a kid

- So he'd just use some of Grace's techniques on you

(Y/N): *hyperventilating*

Diego: Hey, hey focus on me, okay? Count to ten.

- Would not leave until he was 100% sure you were okay

- He would just sit with you and stroke your hair (I LOVE HIM PLS-)

- Will actually stab people who mention it

ALLISON

- protective mum mode straight away

- will make you tea, bring you biscuits, sit and hold your hands

- hell she will sing for you if you want her to

(Y/N): *panic attack* Allison: *cuddles and lots of love*

- She starts asking if anyone hurt you in any way

- She just cares about you so so much <3

- Will look out for signs of you getting stressed and remove you from the situation

KLAUS

- he does straight up ask you if you want some drugs

- but what do we expect this is Klaus we're talking about

- he tries to make you laugh by telling you random stories

(Y/N): *very much sad* Klaus: oH! AND THEN I SAID TO HIM-

- He also had panic attacks as a kid (those damn ghosties)

- so he really really sympathises with you

- is also weirdly good at noticing when you're stressed like what

FIVE

- knows exactly what to do and exactly what to say

- because he's Five

- knows all the breathing techniques and mental exercises

(Y/N): *heavy breathing*

Five: Okay, tell me five things you can see.

- Let's be real, Five has definitely had a panic attack before

- And even if he hasn't he knows the feeling of anxiety. It isn't an uncommon feeling to him

- He may be a stubborn little man-child, but he does really care for you.

- Like Allison, he is a total mum when it comes to these things.

- Wraps his arms around you, tells you to follow his breathing pattern

- will not leave your side. at all.

(Y/N): *upset*

Ben: *shower of affection*

- I mean, he grew up as 'the horror'. I would be shocked if he never had a panic attack or two.

- He makes sure to stay very calm around you and will always be checking on you.

- Stan our octopus boy <3

VIKTOR

- Will sit with you and talk in a really soft voice

- I mean, he knows how it feels to not be able to talk about your problems

- And he would never wish that on anyone, especially not you

(Y/N): *mental torture*

Viktor: Come sit, let's talk

- The feeling of anxiety has been very common in his life.

- And he cares about you too much to let you suffer in silence

- Afterwards, you will most likely fall asleep to some soft violin music
