Liam anxiety disorder part 2

Requested by

Prompt- can you do Liam's got anxiety and struggles with it because the meds he was taking didn't work and he's claustrophobic and it is worse with his anxiety and he gets anxiety attacks at least once a day and when he has anxiety attacks he can feel it coming and he always goes to Niall and when he is going through it he tends to pull harshly at his hair and scratches his arms sometimes if not stopped until they bleed and Niall is always there to hold and restrain him and so are the other boys when Liam goes through this and support him also anything can set him off he could be happy and smiling next minute he could be feeling it coming on but never too bad but when he's had a bad day they get really bad but Niall knows how to handle Liam and calm him down
—————————————————————————

Liam's pov

We are about half way through our take me home tour. My anxiety has been alright. I have had a few bad days where only Niall can calm me down but I have had a few better days where the boys can calm me down. Today I feel like is going to be a bad day. I look at the time and see it is 3:45am. I need to be up in about an hour. I haven't been able to go to sleep. I feel myself want to scratch my arms. I carefully get out of bed and go over to Niall's bed and Niall's eyes slowly open. He takes one look at me and gently pulls me to his chest. He holds my arms down. I instantly feel safe and I curl into Niall and Niall asks me quietly "You alright babe?" I shrug and respond quietly "A little bit anxious about today. We are really busy today." I feel Niall nod against my head and he says quietly "Try and get some sleep Li. That will hopefully help." I nod and Niall starts to stroke my hair. I soon fall asleep.

Niall's pov

I smile as Liam fell asleep. I can tell he hasn't slept all night. I make sure to keep a grip on Liam's arms so that he can't scratch himself or pull his hair in his sleep. I kiss his forehead and I fall asleep myself.

The next morning still Niall's pov

I get woken up by Liam's alarm and I carefully detach myself from Liam. I turn off Liam's alarm then quickly go to the bathroom and do my business. I then flush the toilet and wash my hands then go back to the bunk rooms. I see Harry starting to wake up. He says "Morning Niall." I smile and say "Morning Harry." I look over at Liam and see him trying to scratch himself in his sleep. I walk over to my bed and gently pull his arms apart from each other. He wakes up and looks at me. I know by the look on his face that his anxiety medication is not going to help him at all today. I help him to stand up and he leans his head on my shoulder and says "Ni stay with me." I nod and say "I'll stay with you as much as I can baby." Liam nods and Harry says "Niall you take Liam to the main area. I'll get the other two up." I nod and lead Liam to the main area. We sit down and Liam snuggles into me. I smile and hold him.

Durning the third interview Liam's pov

It is just me and Louis doing this interview. I am feeling very anxious. I have very strong urges to ether scratch myself or pull my hair. I am trying to stop myself. I am so glad the interview is almost over. I hear the interviewer ask "Right then boys. Only one more question which I am sure your fans would love to know. Are you boys in a relationship?" Louis says "Yeah I am in a relationship with my lovely girlfriend Eleanor." I say as management aren't letting us come out "No I am currently single." The interviewer says "Oooh one of you lucky ladies might have a chance with Liam. Right that is all we have time for today. Thank you Liam and Louis for answering some of the fans questions." Louis responds "Your welcome." We then walk off stage. I run into the dressing room and I don't see Niall. I instantly walk over to a wall and slide down it scratching at my arms.

Louis' pov

I rush after Liam and I see him sat against the wall scratching his arms causing them to start bleeding. I try to pry his arms apart but he just scratches harder and says shakily "N..no do..don't tou..touch me." I nod and just watch him to make sure he doesn't hurt himself too much. He stops scratching his arms briefly before he starts yanking his hair pulling out some hair. I hope Niall's interview is almost over. I text him 'You need to hurry up. Liam is having a bad anxiety attack. He has made his arms bleed and now he is pulling out hair. Please hurry before he hurts himself more.' I look back at Liam and see he is scratching his arms again with a few clumps of hair surrounding him. Luckily his hair is quite thick so it is barely noticeable. I feel my phone vibrating and I look down at it and see Niall has messaged 'On my way now. My interview is now over. Let him know for me. What is he doing now?' I respond 'He is now scratching his arms again.' Niall responds 'Be there in a few minutes.'

I say to Liam "Li buddy, Niall is going to be here in a few minutes." I don't think he heard me. A few minutes later Niall rushes through the door and crouches down in front of Liam whispering softly to him. Niall is closely followed by Harry and Zayn who both sit by me not wanting to get in the way of Niall and Liam.

Niall's pov

I rush into the dressing room and I see Liam scratching his arms which are bleeding and a few clumps of hair surrounding him. I crouch down in front of him and I start to whisper to him softly he slowly looks up at me and I gently pry his arms apart and they fall limply to his sides. He buries his face in my chest. I allow him to cuddle into me. I then stand up bringing Liam with me and I carry him over to the sofa. I say to Louis. "Lou could you please get the first aid kit out of my bag please." Louis finds the first aid kit and hands it to me. I start wiping Liam's arm with saline solution and some gauze. I then wrap his arm in a bandage and look down at him and see he is asleep. I smile and say to Louis "Thank you for being with him." Louis says "I didn't do anything though. He wouldn't let me." I say "You did though. If you weren't in here this would have been a lot worse. So thank you" Louis nods and says "Your welcome."

A few weeks later no one's pov

Liam thanked Niall for looking after him whilst he had the bad anxiety attack he also thanked Louis for being there with him whilst Niall wasn't there. The boys all supported Liam whilst he was anxious.
