The Umbrella Academy, a dysfunctional family of seven adopted superheroes, is thrust into a perilous mission to prevent the apocalypse in the hit Netflix series. Their journey takes them through the "Seven Stages of Paradox Psychosis," a psychological phenomenon that occurs when individuals are confronted with paradoxes or time-bending situations.

The Seven Stages of Paradox Psychosis:

Denial: Refusal or inability to accept the reality of the paradox.
Anger: Expression of intense emotions towards the situation and its creators.
Bargaining: Attempts to negotiate or alter the paradox to avoid its consequences.
Depression: Overwhelming feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and despair.
Acceptance: Gradual recognition and understanding of the paradox.
Paradox Embodied: Embracing the paradox and its implications.
Transcendence: Overcoming the boundaries of the paradox and achieving a higher understanding.
