A predominant theme in the [[Daniel Larson]] saga is Daniel's chronic [[Daniel and Mental Health|mental health issues]] and his deteriorating physical health.


A predominant theme in the [[Daniel Larson]] saga is Daniel's obvious chronic mental health issues, and the fact that anyone with two eyes can see that he is obviously not in good physical or mental health. Considering his lack of exercise, poor nutrition, refusal to bathe and the grave uncleanliness of his surroundings, he has developed potentially life-threatening conditions out of pure negligence and uncare.  
Considering his underweightness, poor nutrition, refusal to bathe, chronic self-harming, and the uncleanliness of his surroundings, Daniel is at extreme risk of a premature death due to all of these combined factors.  


His mental health issues is a driving factor behind a majority of his decisions is definitely an indirect cause of his [[Homeless Arc|homelessness]], [[Daniel's Criminal History|police record]], and his internet fame/infamy, however, this does not excuse his actions.  
== Physical Health ==
[[File:DanielsAwfulBody.png|thumb|Is this physique natty attainable?|386x386px]]
Daniel is very obviously not physically fit, and is notably underweight. His various [[Daniel's Criminal History|warrants]] have listed his basic information. Daniel is a 5'10" Caucasian male who weighs about 115 pounds (equivalent to a BMI of 16.4), which according to the Center for Disease and Control is underweight.<ref>[[File:Image213124.png|thumb]]
</ref> In 2024, his hospital records from the [[Red Robin Poisoning]] stated a weight of 119 pounds and a BMI of 17.07, which, even then, still classifies as underweight.


==Physical Health==
In addition, his physical strength is notably very weak. During the [[College Arc]], he was challenged to bench press an empty barbell, which typically weighs about 45lbs (or 20kg), his arms collapsed under the weight of it, and another student had to step in to prevent him from being crushed. For comparison, the average American male in their mid-twenties can usually bench press around 216 pounds (or 98kg), meaning Daniel's strength is less than a fifth of what the average man can lift.
Daniel Larson's physical health, despite being very poor, is much better than his mental health, but not by very much. Due to being homeless, lazy, a strong detester of most forms of [[Daniel's Hygiene|hygiene]], and not the brightest person when it comes to sanitation (i.e. the [[The Poop Rag|poop rag]] incident), he is at high risk of disease and infection. His various [[Daniel's Criminal History|warrants]] have listed his basic information- he is a 5'10" male Caucasian who weighs about 115 pounds, which is underweight for a man of that height, but there is much to learn underneath that.
[[File:Daniel-Larson-1.jpg|thumb]]


===Appearance===
Daniel is notable for his unique body, from his small stature, to his sunken in chest, to his abnormally large feet. It is unclear why he looks the way he does, but it is speculated that Daniel suffers from a physical disease such as Progeria, which is an extremely rare, progressive genetic disorder. It causes children to age rapidly, starting in their first two years of life. Though, this seems unlikely, as the lifespan of those with progeria is typically less than 15.<ref>https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/progeria/symptoms-causes/syc-20356038</ref>
One of the many reasons Daniel Larson has gained such a prominent social media following is his odd and frankly unorthodox appearance. His eyes are oddly proportioned, drooping down in an unnatural way, and his [[Daniel Larson's Nose|nose]] is abnormally large, his cranium is slightly smaller than average (possible sign of [[wikipedia:Microcephaly|microcephaly]]) and his mouth is slightly dispostioned, as if falling off of his face.  


Daniel Larson, because of his diet, lack of physical activity, and other health issues (especially influenced by his [[Trench Foot|trench foot]]), is not very [[Daniel's Athleticism|physically fit.]]
== Diet and Nutrition ==
Put simply, Daniel does not have a very good diet. Daniel's diet mainly consists of meals from fast food chains such as McDonalds, [[Panera Bread Incident|Panera Bread]], and [[Olive Garden Incident|Olive Garden]]. At one point, Daniel purchased over 3 mac n cheese dishes from Panera Bread, not realizing that, for one, he didn't need to eat that much, and two, it was insanely unhealthy. The caloric content of these dishes often exceed fast food burgers. His diet also contributes in large part to many of his health issues, as well as his [[Finances|financial problems.]]


Daniel, in one video, is seen smashing his headphones running at a light pace for less than 3 minutes, and is seen completely winded from the exercise
It doesn't help at all that Daniel barely any water consumption, often drinking soda, juice, and milkshakes. The sugary contents of these beverages breaks down the enamel of his teeth, further worsening the state of his dental health, compounded by his refusal to brush his teeth.


While his appearance may have something to relate with his health, Occam's Razor suggests it's most likely just bad genetics.
During the several [[Jail (Disambiguation)|jail arcs]], Daniel seemed to have regained color in his face, and looked significantly healthier. This is likely due to him being completely unable to beg for money to spend on junk food.
[[File:Scabies.png|thumb|A photo of Daniel's scabies rashes]]
===Scabies===
(see [[Scabies]])


Scabies is a highly contagious infection of the skin by the small mite Sarcoptes Scabiei, and it is highly reccomended to people who attempt to meet Daniel in person, to NOT make any type of physical contact with him as it has been noted that e has given people rashes and various other infections from his utter, unreasonable uncleanliness.  
== Living Conditions ==
[[File:Scabies.png|thumb|A photo of Daniel's scabies rashes]]The most notable thing about Daniel Larson is his profound lack of housing. Simply put, Daniel's living conditions are less than adequate. Ever since the beginning of the [[Homeless Era]] in late 2021, Daniel has spent close to 3 years growing acclimated to living in conditions of abject filth and untidiness. Due to being homeless, coupled with an aversion to most forms of [[Daniel's Hygiene|hygiene]], and being profoundly unsanitary, he is at high risk of disease and infection.<ref>https://www.cdc.gov/hygiene/fast-facts.html</ref>


These mites cause extreme discomfort and possible bleeding, creating pimple-like rashes that can become infected which can be deadly. Scabies is notoriously difficult to treat and extremely easy to spread, with most hospitals destroying the clothes of patients with scabies and putting them in strict containment.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scabies</ref>
The several sleep streams and photos of homeless shelters he has shared showcase a less than clean environment. Due to this, Daniel became accustom to sleeping out in the open, porta-potties, and establishments he loiters at.


Daniel Larson first showed signs of Scabies sometime in early 2023 during the [[Las Vegas Arc]], when he was [[Homeless Arc|homeless]] in [[Las Vegas]].
Due to these conditions, Daniel was eventually diagnosed with '''Scabies'''. Scabies is a highly contagious infection of the skin by the small mite ''sarcoptes scabiei,'' which he most likely picked up after sleeping out in the open, where he was victim to many a bugbite''.''<ref>[https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/scabies/index.html#:~:text=Human%20scabies%20is%20caused%20by,a%20pimple%2Dlike%20skin%20rash. https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/scabies/index.html#:~:text=Human%20scabies%20is%20caused%20by,a%20pimple%2Dlike%20skin%20rash.]</ref><ref>[https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/scabies/index.html#:~:text=Human%20scabies%20is%20caused%20by,a%20pimple%2Dlike%20skin%20rash. https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/scabies/index.html#:~:text=Human%20scabies%20is%20caused%20by,a%20pimple%2Dlike%20skin%20rash.]</ref> Daniel first showed signs of scabies sometime in early 2023 during the [[Las Vegas Arc]], when he was [[Homeless Arc|homeless]] in [[Las Vegas]]. Daniel was seen wearing the same clothes for weeks at a time and not bathing even when he had the chance to. Streets are knowingly not clean, and in porta-potties around other homeless people who were highly likely to have carried disease. <ref>https://963kklz.com/listicle/las-vegas-ranks-in-dirtiest-cities-in-america-see-whos-number-one/</ref> Out of fear of the infection spreading, warnings about Daniel were spread on Facebook, warning people to stay away from him and to visit the hospital if they were in close contact.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/10giimx/larson_got_famous_in_anaheim_109_shares_81/</ref>


Daniel was wearing the same clothes for weeks at a time, not bathing, and even when he did have chances to bathe and did not take them, usually sleeping on the dirty streets and in porta-potties around other homeless people who are highly likely to have carried more, if not the equal amount of diseases he had/has. These are heavy risk factors for a plethora of diseases, especially scabies.
Daniel was prescribed a lotion for this issue, to which he proceeded to not use it all all.{{Citation Needed}} Eventually, the scabies became so severe it got to the point he was bleeding out of his skin. Daniel went to the hospital and received a dose of Ivermectin and was cleaned off. Following the visit, his scabies went into remission.


In January of 2023, Daniel started showing off mysterious rashes on his skin, which was met by a great amount of concern for a risk of infection due to him aggressively scratching it and irritating the potential wounds further.
== Podiatric Health ==
[[File:TrenchFoot.png|left|thumb|390x390px|He's gonna be singing in a wheelchair pretty soon!]]
Podiatry, or podiatric medicine and surgery, is a branch of medicine devoted to the study, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle and lower limb.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Podiatry</ref> 


In the same month, [[r/Daniellarson]] diagnosed him with Scabies, which was extremely worrying as Daniel was in Disneyland at the time of diagnosis, and was in close contact of other people on bus and carnival rides, as well as other homeless people who slept near him, as homeless people often do for safety reasons, which potentially only engendered his disease via making it worse.  
Unsurprisingly, Daniel's podiatric health has taken a significant nosedive as well. In early 2023, Daniel contracted trench foot, posting that due to having worn the same [[Mold Socks|moldy socks]] for months, his feet were becoming black, emitting a foul odor, and bleeding profusely.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/10ezoww/danderson_says_his_trench_foot_blisters_are/</ref><ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/10ezoww/danderson_says_his_trench_foot_blisters_are/</ref><ref>https://archive.org/details/7128085146779061550</ref> Upon closer inspection, Daniel has a large plantar wart at the bottom of his heel, which is not very severe, but what he does have that is concerning is discoloration of the foot, and odd splotches at the sole of his foot, which ''could'' be early necrosis.  


The community spread warnings of Daniel all over Facebook, warning people to stay away from him and to visit the hospital if they were in close contact.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/10giimx/larson_got_famous_in_anaheim_109_shares_81/</ref>
This is most likely a result of Daniel not being able to keep off of his feet due to homelessness, only exacerbated by the fact he refused to use his money to buy a new pair of socks, let alone medicine for his issues. favoring expensive macaroni and cheese and trips to the Cheesecake factory instead. When visiting a hospital doctor told Daniel to keep his feet dry, limit his walking, change his socks often, and find a homeless shelter or hotel to sleep at. Daniel proceeded to do none of this.{{Citation Needed}} Trench foot, if it gets severe enough, can require amputation. This is a severe disorder, and recently Daniel has posted videos of his feet bleeding due to damage.
[[File:MusicalTheater2.png|thumb|308x308px|He sticks out like a sore thumb.]]
Daniel's ankle is also noted to be massively inflamed, and his toenails have become a dark shade of black and/or brown.<ref name=":2">https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/10m21eg/his_fucking_foot_ew/</ref> It could be sign of infection, injury, too much walking (which doesn't help his trench foot at all), or lack of proper blood flow to the area. It could also be lymphedema, which can be a result of bacteria or some sort of contamination. A major concern with Daniel is a possible blood clot or circulation issues, as he is noted to have talked about losing feeling in his foot.


Daniel eventually visited the hospital in January of 2023 and was given treatment, which is summarized below.
Is is also likely that Daniel has a foot deformity. In pictures from his youth, Daniel's feel are notably disproportionate compared to his body. Although, what causes this is unknown.  
===Trench foot, circulation issues, and foot issues===
(see [[Trench Foot]])


Trench foot is a type of foot damage due to excessive and long-term exposure to moisture, where the foot shows signs of decay and can become painful due to moisture damage.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trench_foot</ref>
== Rhinologic Health ==
[[File:DanielNose.png|left|thumb|267x267px|One nose to rule them all. ]]
One of the defining factors of Daniel's appearence is his abnormally large nose. It is unclear as to why it is so big, and one can only assume why.  


Daniel Larson was diagnosed with the condition after a couple of months of [[Homeless Arc|homelessness]], and Daniel recorded videos of himself in the hospital. His treatment of it is listed below.{{#evt:
On April 5th, 2023, Daniel had a large, distinctive laceration on his nose as a result of an [[Bodega Incident|altercation with a bodega employee]]. Daniel kept picking off the scab, showing off a bleeding hole located at the middle of his nose. This scab was dubbed as “Scabfrica” due to it vaguely resembling the continent of Africa. Several of his videos were hidden by TikTok due to how gory they were. He could be seen later with gauze in, and a bandage on his nose.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWMP1Dmz1dc&ab_channel=DanielLarsonCurator</ref>

}}Daniel, as of recent ''(early 2023)'', has posted that he has been wearing the same, [[Mold Socks|moldy socks]] from a month ago and that his feet are appearing black,<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/10ezoww/danderson_says_his_trench_foot_blisters_are/</ref> smelling, and bleeding profusely.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/10ezoww/danderson_says_his_trench_foot_blisters_are/</ref> This is, to put it lightly, extremely alarming as it is a possible sign of necrosis.


This is an extremely alarming issue that needs immediate treatment, as trench foot that reaches necrosis usually warrants amputation of the foot to prevent inevitable and unpreventable circulation issues and infection.
== Dental Health ==
 
[[File:Daniel-Larson-1.jpg|thumb|284x284px|What's up, doc?]]Abundantly clear, Daniel obviously suffers from dental problems. He lacks most of his teeth due to suffering from hypodontia, which is the developmental absence of one or more teeth excluding the third molars.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypodontia</ref><ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/yyzo0q/comment/iwy2onl/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 Comment]"I know it wasnt asked this time specifically but I've seen people inquiring about it before:
However, upon the [https://www.reddit.com/r/daniellarsonfans/comments/12wupzo/open_if_you_dare/ surfacing of closer photos of his feet], it is very apparent that he does not have necrosis, or has an early stage of it. Daniel has a large plantar wart at the bottom of his heel, which is not very severe, but what he does have that is concerning is discoloration of the foot, and odd splotches at the sole of his foot, which ''could'' be early necrosis, but probably isn't.
 
A major concern now is a possible blood clot or circulation issues. Daniel has constant inflammation and discoloration of his ankle below, and he has talked about losing feeling in his foot, so those are both major red flags for such an issue.
 
==== Other foot issues ====
 
* Inflammation around ankle
** Daniel's ankle is massively inflamed<ref name=":2">https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/10m21eg/his_fucking_foot_ew/</ref> and consistently so, which is extremely worrying. It could be sign of infection, injury, too much walking (reminder that he needs to stay off his feet to heal his trench foot), and most worryingly lack of proper blood flow to the area. It could also be lymphedema, which can be a result of bacteria or some sort of contamination.
* Blister
** Daniel has a massive blister at the heel of his foot.<ref name=":2" /> Considering what kind of person Daniel is, he will likely break it and it may get infected.
* Plantar warts
** Daniel has multiple plantar warts on his feet, which are completely benign and will likely resolve themselves.
 
===Hypodontia & dental issues===
Hypodontia is the developmental absence of one or more teeth, excluding the third molars. In November of 2022, it was confirmed<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/yyzo0q/comment/iwy2onl/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 Comment]"I know it wasnt asked this time specifically but I've seen people inquiring about it before:


Daniel is missing teeth due to a condition called Hypodontia. It is when you fail to develop some/all of your adult teeth. It can be inherited or caused by illnesses in infancy. He did have a full set of teeth baby teeth but when the baby ones fell out, there was no teeth to replace them in a few spots.

He did have a full set of teeth baby teeth but when the baby ones fell out, there was no teeth to replace them in a few spots.


He also never brushes them and drinks soda exclusively."</ref> by [[Luke]] during a Reddit Q&A that Daniel is missing teeth due to Hypodontia.<ref>[[wikipedia:Hypodontia|Hypodontia]]</ref>
He also never brushes them and drinks soda exclusively."</ref> Due to him never having his teeth replaced with a second set, Daniel was left with a maw lacking in teeth. His teeth have also visibly yellowed, and it is a mystery as to why Daniel hasn't accrued a single cavity. It can be argued that Daniel doesn't know how to use a toothbrush, because when he had access to one, [[The Toothbrush Incident|he shoved it in his ass]].


Daniel, being homeless, does not brush his teeth and likely eats mainly cheap, unhealthy food, which does not help his dental situation at all. He visibly has a misshapen dental arch, and his teeth are yellow and crooked. He most likely has severe cavities in all.{{#evt:
Due to his homeless (which seems to affect almost everything he does), it is more difficult for him to brush his teeth. He also doesn't want to because of his aversion to general hygiene, with dental hygiene being the last thing he'd ever consider. As a result of his lack of money, insurance, and laziness, Daniel is not able to visit a dentist, crooked teeth going unstraightened. He visibly has a misshapen dental arch. His front 2 teeth are different sizes, possibly from unfixed crowding, and only his front 2 teeth are displayed while talking, possibly a sign of an overbite.

}}


===Injuries ===
Factoring in his diet, Daniel's teeth are most likely being worn down every time he drinks sugary soda or energy drinks, rarely having any sort of water intake.
 
====Bob Proctor====
''(see [[December 10th Incident]])''
 
On December 10th, 2022, Daniel streamed an altercation between him and [[Bob Proctor]] on [[Social Media Accounts|TikTok live]], showing him [[Self Harm|hitting himself]] and [[Bob Proctor|Bob.]]
 
Throughout the video, Daniel's nose is visibly bleeding and Daniel repeatedly claims that his arm is broken. He would later film himself in an ambulance, but his arm being broken is likely untrue.
[[File:Nose.png|thumb|His nose looks like the continent of Africa]]
 
==== Nose laceration ====
Daniel recently had a large, distinctive laceration on his nose as a result of the Bodega Incident, which is talked about below. Daniel kept picking off the scab, showing a hole ''(please do not picture)'' in his nose. Several of his videos were hidden by TikTok by how purely gory they were. Think lots of blood.
 
====Fan assault====
On February 23rd, 2023, after a two-week absence during the [[Las Vegas Arc]], re-appeared on social media claiming that two fans attacked him on [[Fremont Street|East Fremont Street]].
 
Allegedly, the two fans greeted Daniel outside of a Casino and led him down to Fremont, where they pushed him down, kicked him, and stole his phone. While this attack is a serious matter, it seems like Daniel has no permanent injuries.
 
====Bodega incident====
On April 5, 2023, Daniel [[Bodega Incident|assaulted a worker at a bodega]] after he was harassed and agitated by a couple of teenagers.
 
Daniel sustained multiple injuries, including a black eye and a large cut on his nose. He was worried about a potential concussion, but after a screening at a hospital, no concussion nor fractures was found.
 
He could be seen later with gauze in and a bandage on his nose.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWMP1Dmz1dc&ab_channel=DanielLarsonCurator</ref>
 
==== Self-harm ====
Daniel often engages in [[Self Harm|self-harm]], such as him banging his head on objects and him hitting himself, usually when he is frustrated, having a [[Meltdowns|meltdown]], or extremely agitated. This has shown itself many times, most severely in the [[Bob Proctor]] meltdown, wherein Daniel bangs his head onto his own hands and the dashboard of Bobs car multiple times, even after being told to stop.
 
Head banging and punching oneself while under duress is probably a result of his autism, as about 30% of children (keep in mind that Daniel has the mental age of a child) with autism engage in these behaviors.<ref>https://www.autismparentingmagazine.com/autism-self-harm/</ref> More information on Daniel’s instances of this can be found [[Self Harm|here]].


Overall, due to a lack of a dentist and dental hygiene, Daniel's dental health is extremely poor.
== Mental Health==
== Mental Health==
[[Daniel and Mental Health|As noted]], Daniel has a less than positive relationship with his own mental health. He is significantly mentally ill, being diagnosed with Autism, PTSD, Bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. Daniel's mental health significantly impacts him, evidenced through his most notable trait, his [[delusions]]. It doesn't help either that he refuses to receive help for them, refusing therapists time and time again, and denying antipsychotics when prescribed to him.


=== Autism===
Daniel will engage in [[Self Harm|self-harm]] by banging his head on objects and hitting himself, usually when he is frustrated, having a [[Meltdowns|meltdown]], or when extremely agitated. Daniel has self-harmed many times, punching and slapping himself in the face in an attempt to voice his frustration. Even more dangerously, Daniel is known to have hit himself until he bled during the [[Panera Bread Incident|Panera Bread incident.]] Head banging and punching oneself while under duress is probably a result of autism, as about 30% of autistic children engage in these behaviors.<ref>https://www.autismparentingmagazine.com/autism-self-harm/</ref> This may also be a result of bipolar disorder, as up to 50% of sufferers of the disorder exhibit self-harming behaviors and the resultant injuries.<ref>[https://mypsychiatrist.com/blog/psychiatric-disorders-at-risk-for-self-injury/#:~:text=According%20to%20research%2C%20about%2050,by%20psychosis%2C%20which%20feel%20uncontrollable. https://mypsychiatrist.com/blog/psychiatric-disorders-at-risk-for-self-injury/#:~:text=According%20to%20research%2C%20about%2050,by%20psychosis%2C%20which%20feel%20uncontrollable.]</ref>
Autism, or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) refers to a loosely defined amount of neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by challenges with social interaction and communication.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autism_spectrum</ref>


Daniel Larson is autistic, severely so, which is a major driving force behind his naïveté, lack of social skills, and [[Meltdowns|frequent meltdowns]].
Daniel, being autistic and mentally ill, needs prescription medication to control himself. In spite of this, he refuses to fill his prescriptions largely because he is lazy and believes he doesn't need them (and mostly because they are too expensive for him to purchase due to his lack of budgeting skills). Daniel is currently prescribed Latuda and one other unknown medication.


===ADHD===
== Sexual Health ==
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity that are either impairing or age-inappropriate.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attention_deficit_hyperactivity_disorder</ref>
{{Stub}}


Daniel Larson has ADHD, which is a large factor in his lack of [[Daniel's Money|financial skills]] and [[Homeless Arc|homelessness]], his impulsivity, and lack of foresight resulting in him [[Daniel Larson's Gambling|gambling]] and blowing all of his money, or buying things he doesn’t need like $40 nachos or [[Headset Era|headphones]].
== Understanding of Sex ==
{{SpecialMessage|Message=This section of the article is currently in the process of being moved to it's [[Daniel and Sex|own page]]. Help us out and move this sections contents there.}}
Daniel has an extremely poor and warped view of sexual intercourse, mostly stemming from his stunted sexual development, comprehension skills, and mental age. This is most likely a factor behind his alleged [[pedophilia]], and also potentially even because of [https://daniellarson.wiki/index.php/Pedophilia#Daniel's_Sexual_Deviance_and_Possible_Sexual_Trauma sexual abuse in his past]. Though this is not an excuse/justification for this.
[[File:Daniel Group Chat Messages 1.png|thumb|541x541px|"Who has had sex and who hasn't"]]
[[File:Daniel Group Chat Messages 2.png|left|thumb|"Who has had sex and who hasn't" "I have not" ]]
Daniel has an incredibly childish view of sex and what sex is like, so much so that Daniel idolizes it and has odd ideas of how sex works. He knows very little about sex; he is noticeably confused about basic sexual terminology. For example, Daniel has called ejaculation "..the peeing feeling"<sup>[Citation needed]</sup>. Most of Daniel's sexual fantasies are recreations of what he pictures within his mind and not from  sexual experience. Daniel has admitted on various occasions that he is a virgin.  


=== Bipolar disorder===
Daniel seems very interested in furthering his sexual education, often asking people via private messages if they have had sex, what it felt like, and other similar questions. Even in group messages, Daniel did not shy away from showing his unbridled sexual inquiries.
Bipolar disorder is a mental disorder characterized by rapid and extreme mood swings, characterized by periods of depression, abnormal elation, and sometimes psychosis.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_disorder</ref>


Another major driving force behind Daniel's [[Meltdowns]] is his Bipolarism.
A person who was in one of these group chat documents their experiences, posted on the r/daniellarson subreddit.<blockquote>
''"He has an incredibly childish view of sex and what sex is like, to the point he idolizes sex and has very weird fantasies and ideas of how sex works. This furthers the point that he has a very childish mind, potentially even because of sexual abuse in the past."''


===Schizophrenia===
''"He’s VERY intrigued on furthering his sexual education. Kinda like how when most of us had to watch “the movie” growing up before graduating elementary school. It was funny, it was new, and just the prospect of talking about it in school was kinda exciting when we were like 11. Back in 2021 Daniel used to add me and a bunch of people from the Larson lore (i.e. Sabbath, Lil Sid, etc) to these group chats where he’d literally be like “Okay so has anyone ever had sex? What did it feel like? Was it warm? What did you think about during it?”'' ''Super strange, he’d just fire off questions like that. I definitely have screenshots somewhere in Google photos."''<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/11sj45w/comment/jcezmr4/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3</ref>
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterized by episodes of psychosis, hallucinations, disorganized thinking, and delusions.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizophrenia</ref>
</blockquote>
 
[[File:Daniel Group Chat Messages 3.png|left|thumb|445x445px|"Are you ok with telling me what it felt like"]]
While Daniel having schizophrenia is unconfirmed, him taking Latuda (a schizophrenia medication<ref name=":0">https://www.webmd.com/drugs/2/drug-155134/latuda-oral/details</ref>) and often showing delusions (i.e. [[Presidential Campaign]], [[Goldberg Shacklestein]]) and possible episodes of psychosis are major signs he has schizophrenia.
Daniel shows a lack of understanding around sex, often wondering and asking if rape feels any good at all. He is very apathetic about consent and to a larger extent, rape. When a troll pretending to be [[Grace VanderWaal]] [https://daniellarson.wiki/index.php/Grace_VanderWaal#Grace_Rape_Troll told him that she was being raped], he asked if it felt good and various other questions as to what being raped was like. This was presumably so Daniel could get off to the thought of his favorite celebrity and long-time crush engaging in sexual activity. Perhaps he asked these questions because the troll was pretending to be Grace, but even people who aren't Grace VanderWaal are asked similar questions.  


===Intellectual issues===
This behavior is most likely explained by his ignorance about the world, which causes him to be quite naïve about how bad rape actually is. To Daniel, it is nothing more than another word for sex.
Daniel, as a result of his laundry list of disorders, has a very poor intellect and is unable to properly handle many things necessary to function as an adult.


==== Intellect & comprehension====
===== Pedophilia =====
Daniel is, very apparently, not the brightest bulb and has a very low mental age in comparison with his physical age. This is most apparent in his [[Tennyson Center]] interview, where during the interview, Daniel acts like a 7-year-old despite being 14 at the time of recording.
''Main Article: [[Pedophilia]]''


His young mental age is a likely factor behind his lack of understanding of [[Daniel's Money|money]], and why he almost instantly blows all the money he should be spending on proper meals, housing, and medicine on gambling and luxury goods like electronics, food at expensive restaurants, and on bus rides to nowhere.
Pedophilia has always been a touchy subject for Daniel. During the initial leaking of Daniel's [[Pinterest|Pinterest account]], he had at first attempted to deny all claims that he was a pedophile, pretending he hadn't even known what Pinterest was, before backtracking and boldly admitting it to the camera.


==== Pedophilia & and Understanding of Sex====
Daniel's pedophilia dates as far back to when he was 18, where he had seen 12 year-old [[Grace VanderWaal]] on ''America's Got Talent''. Daniel's grandmother [[Nancy Shimer]] told Daniel that he would have a chance at dating Grace, which resulted in Daniel's years long obsession  with Grace, sexual fantasies about Grace, and stalking<sup>[Citation needed]</sup>. Even though Grace is now an adult, during the years when Daniel started TikTok she was still underage, and Daniel did not shy away from talking about her in inappropriate ways. When messaging with trolls who  pretended to be Grace, Daniel had (and still presumably has) a habit of sending photos of Grace from her childhood which he attempted to sexualize<sup>[Citation Needed]</sup>.
Daniel has a very poor understanding of sex and consent, probably because of his comprehension skills and mental age. This is definitely a factor behind his [[pedophilia]], mainly his lack of ability to understand consent, which has been displayed to full effect during the [[Sleepy Joe]] incident.


Even without the unconfirmed evidence, Daniel is a confirmed pedophile, him stalking [[Grace VanderWaal]] and talking sexually about multiple children such as [[Skye Brown]].
Daniel is well aware of the allegations of pedophilia against him, and has vehemently denied it.

Back in 2021 Daniel used to add me and a bunch of people from the Larson lore (i.e. Sabbath, Lil Sid, etc) to these group chats where he’d literally be like “Okay so has anyone ever had sex?

===== Sex Toys =====
</blockquote>
Daniel has made numerous purchases for sex toys, his go-to toy being a fleshlight, or "pocket pussy".  
[[File:Daniel Fleshlight Chat 1.png|thumb|Danny you dirty dog.]]
On July 30th, 2023, he purchased one of them from a sex shop while speaking to another fake [[Grace VanderWaal|Grace]] troll.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Daniellarson/comments/15ei235/more_texts_daniel_sent_to_grace_he_bought_a/</ref> The fleshlight was bought using money that [[Bob Proctor]] had supplied to Daniel to buy essentials such as food, water, and clothes, which he never did.
[[File:Daniel Fleshlight Chat 2.png|left|thumb|Daniel showing off the fleshlight.]]
In these messages, Daniel claims that he was getting something for "us", as if the troll was going to feel Daniel using the fleshlight. Using Bob's money, he purchased a fleshlight from a sex shop (which sex shop is unknown), and showed it off to the troll. Daniel lost the bag he kept the fleshlight in.
[[File:Daniels Fleshlight.png|thumb|292x292px|Daniel showing off his fleshlight on his TikTok account.]]
On August 15th, 2023, Daniel purchased 4 more fleshlights, 2 of them resembling a man's anus. Daniel claimed to have spent $500 dollars that day. Daniel's reasoning for buying all four instead of just one is unknown. Daniel's obsession with buying expensive things instead of saving his resources while homeless is a mystery. Due to Daniel's homelessness, there is a very strong chance that if he ever gets around to using these toys, they will most likely remain uncleaned and absolutely filthy.  


When Daniel was arrested in Boulder, a fleshlight could be seen in bodycam footage of the officer searching his backpack. The fleshlight was not removed by the officer.


===Speculated disorders===
==Usage of Drugs==
There are many disorders that Daniel is suspected to have a multitude of mental issues.
While he doesn't often show it, Daniel has used both prescription and more illicit drugs. He has largely abandoned the usage of prescription drugs likely owing to their high cost and his lack of insurance, but he has drank and consumed marijuana (albeit through a hotbox, and not of his own volition) before. There is no evidence (yet, at least) to suggest Daniel has smoked tobacco or done any hard drugs (which can range in nature from psychedelic mushrooms to methamphetamine.)


====Anxiety====
===Alcohol===
Daniel Larson is often unable to properly respond to tense situations, such as the [[Planet Fitness Bathroom Incident]], but this is probably a result of his autism rather than a form of anxiety.
There is some evidence to suggest at least a few of his meltdowns can be attributed to alcohol usage, with at least a part of the [[July 2022 Electronic Destruction Spree|tech destruction spree in July of 2022]] having Daniel claim he slammed a device on the concrete. [[File:Drinky.jpg|thumb]] His alcoholic beverage of choice is beer, with Daniel being known to have stated he was going out for beers at least once. [[File:Gotta have that beer.jpg|thumb]]


==Treatment==
Daniel claims alcoholism is part of what ruined his life, stating he was pressured into alcohol (perhaps by past [[Management]]) and became addicted. He can be seen drinking it whenever he is more well off than usual and oftentimes when he is at sporting events, see [[Timeline]]. It is generally believed that if Daniel was better off, his drinking would likely be far more regular, perhaps to the point of it being a problem.


===2-week mental hospital visit===
===Marijuana===  
After threatening people with fireworks, Daniel was put into a mental hospital which Daniel has described as "A living hell"<ref>https://www.youtube.com/shorts/u6AothG63B4</ref>, where he was given Latuda, a schizophrenia medication.<ref name=":0" />
Daniel has been under the influence of marijuana before, though the only evidence of this comes as a result of being hotboxed by fans. Daniel's reaction in this particular case appears to be excitedly screaming and yelling, perhaps as a result of the specific strain of marijuana being a sativa strain, or at the least a sativa-heavy hybrid strain. It could also be possible that Daniel had a negative experience that caused him to panic, although his excitement generally suggests the former.
===Scabies treatment===
Daniel was diagnosed with scabies in 2023 and was prescribed a lotion and was sent on his way. Daniel proceeded to not use the lotion, as he spent the money dedicated towards the lotion on food from The Cheesecake Factory.


Eventually, the Scabies got so severe it got to the point he was bleeding out of his skin. Daniel went to the hospital and received a dose of Ivermectin and was cleaned off. Following the visit, his Scabies went into remission.
== Other Issues ==


===Trench foot treatment===
=== Red Robin Poisoning ===
Trench foot isn't a disease and is only treatable, not curable. The doctor told Daniel to keep his feet dry, limit his walking, change his socks often, and find a homeless shelter or hotel to sleep at. Daniel proceeded to do none of this.

Trench foot, if it gets severe enough, can require amputation. This is a severe disorder, and recently Daniel has posted videos of his feet bleeding due to damage.
Daniel admitted himself to the hospital on April 11, 2024 complaining about a "stomach bug" after vomiting a lot, likely from poisoned food from Red Robin. He was discharged a day later, before coming back due to migraines.

Latest revision as of 05:49, 3 October 2024

A predominant theme in the Daniel Larson saga is Daniel's chronic mental health issues and his deteriorating physical health.

Considering his underweightness, poor nutrition, refusal to bathe, chronic self-harming, and the uncleanliness of his surroundings, Daniel is at extreme risk of a premature death due to all of these combined factors.

Physical Health

Is this physique natty attainable?

Daniel is very obviously not physically fit, and is notably underweight. His various warrants have listed his basic information. Daniel is a 5'10" Caucasian male who weighs about 115 pounds (equivalent to a BMI of 16.4), which according to the Center for Disease and Control is underweight.[1] In 2024, his hospital records from the Red Robin Poisoning stated a weight of 119 pounds and a BMI of 17.07, which, even then, still classifies as underweight.

In addition, his physical strength is notably very weak. During the College Arc, he was challenged to bench press an empty barbell, which typically weighs about 45lbs (or 20kg), his arms collapsed under the weight of it, and another student had to step in to prevent him from being crushed. For comparison, the average American male in their mid-twenties can usually bench press around 216 pounds (or 98kg), meaning Daniel's strength is less than a fifth of what the average man can lift.

Daniel is notable for his unique body, from his small stature, to his sunken in chest, to his abnormally large feet. It is unclear why he looks the way he does, but it is speculated that Daniel suffers from a physical disease such as Progeria, which is an extremely rare, progressive genetic disorder. It causes children to age rapidly, starting in their first two years of life. Though, this seems unlikely, as the lifespan of those with progeria is typically less than 15.[2]

Diet and Nutrition

Put simply, Daniel does not have a very good diet. Daniel's diet mainly consists of meals from fast food chains such as McDonalds, Panera Bread, and Olive Garden. At one point, Daniel purchased over 3 mac n cheese dishes from Panera Bread, not realizing that, for one, he didn't need to eat that much, and two, it was insanely unhealthy. The caloric content of these dishes often exceed fast food burgers. His diet also contributes in large part to many of his health issues, as well as his financial problems.

It doesn't help at all that Daniel barely any water consumption, often drinking soda, juice, and milkshakes. The sugary contents of these beverages breaks down the enamel of his teeth, further worsening the state of his dental health, compounded by his refusal to brush his teeth.

During the several jail arcs, Daniel seemed to have regained color in his face, and looked significantly healthier. This is likely due to him being completely unable to beg for money to spend on junk food.

Living Conditions

A photo of Daniel's scabies rashes

The most notable thing about Daniel Larson is his profound lack of housing. Simply put, Daniel's living conditions are less than adequate. Ever since the beginning of the Homeless Era in late 2021, Daniel has spent close to 3 years growing acclimated to living in conditions of abject filth and untidiness. Due to being homeless, coupled with an aversion to most forms of hygiene, and being profoundly unsanitary, he is at high risk of disease and infection.[3]

The several sleep streams and photos of homeless shelters he has shared showcase a less than clean environment. Due to this, Daniel became accustom to sleeping out in the open, porta-potties, and establishments he loiters at.

Due to these conditions, Daniel was eventually diagnosed with Scabies. Scabies is a highly contagious infection of the skin by the small mite sarcoptes scabiei, which he most likely picked up after sleeping out in the open, where he was victim to many a bugbite.[4][5] Daniel first showed signs of scabies sometime in early 2023 during the Las Vegas Arc, when he was homeless in Las Vegas. Daniel was seen wearing the same clothes for weeks at a time and not bathing even when he had the chance to. Streets are knowingly not clean, and in porta-potties around other homeless people who were highly likely to have carried disease. [6] Out of fear of the infection spreading, warnings about Daniel were spread on Facebook, warning people to stay away from him and to visit the hospital if they were in close contact.[7]

Daniel was prescribed a lotion for this issue, to which he proceeded to not use it all all.[citation needed] Eventually, the scabies became so severe it got to the point he was bleeding out of his skin. Daniel went to the hospital and received a dose of Ivermectin and was cleaned off. Following the visit, his scabies went into remission.

Podiatric Health

He's gonna be singing in a wheelchair pretty soon!

Podiatry, or podiatric medicine and surgery, is a branch of medicine devoted to the study, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle and lower limb.[8]

Unsurprisingly, Daniel's podiatric health has taken a significant nosedive as well. In early 2023, Daniel contracted trench foot, posting that due to having worn the same moldy socks for months, his feet were becoming black, emitting a foul odor, and bleeding profusely.[9][10][11] Upon closer inspection, Daniel has a large plantar wart at the bottom of his heel, which is not very severe, but what he does have that is concerning is discoloration of the foot, and odd splotches at the sole of his foot, which could be early necrosis.

This is most likely a result of Daniel not being able to keep off of his feet due to homelessness, only exacerbated by the fact he refused to use his money to buy a new pair of socks, let alone medicine for his issues. favoring expensive macaroni and cheese and trips to the Cheesecake factory instead. When visiting a hospital doctor told Daniel to keep his feet dry, limit his walking, change his socks often, and find a homeless shelter or hotel to sleep at. Daniel proceeded to do none of this.[citation needed] Trench foot, if it gets severe enough, can require amputation. This is a severe disorder, and recently Daniel has posted videos of his feet bleeding due to damage.

He sticks out like a sore thumb.

Daniel's ankle is also noted to be massively inflamed, and his toenails have become a dark shade of black and/or brown.[12] It could be sign of infection, injury, too much walking (which doesn't help his trench foot at all), or lack of proper blood flow to the area. It could also be lymphedema, which can be a result of bacteria or some sort of contamination. A major concern with Daniel is a possible blood clot or circulation issues, as he is noted to have talked about losing feeling in his foot.

Is is also likely that Daniel has a foot deformity. In pictures from his youth, Daniel's feel are notably disproportionate compared to his body. Although, what causes this is unknown.

Rhinologic Health

One nose to rule them all.

One of the defining factors of Daniel's appearence is his abnormally large nose. It is unclear as to why it is so big, and one can only assume why.

On April 5th, 2023, Daniel had a large, distinctive laceration on his nose as a result of an altercation with a bodega employee. Daniel kept picking off the scab, showing off a bleeding hole located at the middle of his nose. This scab was dubbed as “Scabfrica” due to it vaguely resembling the continent of Africa. Several of his videos were hidden by TikTok due to how gory they were. He could be seen later with gauze in, and a bandage on his nose.[13]

Dental Health

What's up, doc?

Abundantly clear, Daniel obviously suffers from dental problems. He lacks most of his teeth due to suffering from hypodontia, which is the developmental absence of one or more teeth excluding the third molars.[14][15] Due to him never having his teeth replaced with a second set, Daniel was left with a maw lacking in teeth. His teeth have also visibly yellowed, and it is a mystery as to why Daniel hasn't accrued a single cavity. It can be argued that Daniel doesn't know how to use a toothbrush, because when he had access to one, he shoved it in his ass.

Due to his homeless (which seems to affect almost everything he does), it is more difficult for him to brush his teeth. He also doesn't want to because of his aversion to general hygiene, with dental hygiene being the last thing he'd ever consider. As a result of his lack of money, insurance, and laziness, Daniel is not able to visit a dentist, crooked teeth going unstraightened. He visibly has a misshapen dental arch. His front 2 teeth are different sizes, possibly from unfixed crowding, and only his front 2 teeth are displayed while talking, possibly a sign of an overbite.

Factoring in his diet, Daniel's teeth are most likely being worn down every time he drinks sugary soda or energy drinks, rarely having any sort of water intake.

Overall, due to a lack of a dentist and dental hygiene, Daniel's dental health is extremely poor.

Mental Health

As noted, Daniel has a less than positive relationship with his own mental health. He is significantly mentally ill, being diagnosed with Autism, PTSD, Bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia. Daniel's mental health significantly impacts him, evidenced through his most notable trait, his delusions. It doesn't help either that he refuses to receive help for them, refusing therapists time and time again, and denying antipsychotics when prescribed to him.

Daniel will engage in self-harm by banging his head on objects and hitting himself, usually when he is frustrated, having a meltdown, or when extremely agitated. Daniel has self-harmed many times, punching and slapping himself in the face in an attempt to voice his frustration. Even more dangerously, Daniel is known to have hit himself until he bled during the Panera Bread incident. Head banging and punching oneself while under duress is probably a result of autism, as about 30% of autistic children engage in these behaviors.[16] This may also be a result of bipolar disorder, as up to 50% of sufferers of the disorder exhibit self-harming behaviors and the resultant injuries.[17]

Daniel, being autistic and mentally ill, needs prescription medication to control himself. In spite of this, he refuses to fill his prescriptions largely because he is lazy and believes he doesn't need them (and mostly because they are too expensive for him to purchase due to his lack of budgeting skills). Daniel is currently prescribed Latuda and one other unknown medication.

Sexual Health


Understanding of Sex

Daniel has an extremely poor and warped view of sexual intercourse, mostly stemming from his stunted sexual development, comprehension skills, and mental age. This is most likely a factor behind his alleged pedophilia, and also potentially even because of sexual abuse in his past. Though this is not an excuse/justification for this.

"Who has had sex and who hasn't"
"Who has had sex and who hasn't" "I have not"

Daniel has an incredibly childish view of sex and what sex is like, so much so that Daniel idolizes it and has odd ideas of how sex works. He knows very little about sex; he is noticeably confused about basic sexual terminology. For example, Daniel has called ejaculation "..the peeing feeling"[Citation needed]. Most of Daniel's sexual fantasies are recreations of what he pictures within his mind and not from sexual experience. Daniel has admitted on various occasions that he is a virgin.

Daniel seems very interested in furthering his sexual education, often asking people via private messages if they have had sex, what it felt like, and other similar questions. Even in group messages, Daniel did not shy away from showing his unbridled sexual inquiries.

A person who was in one of these group chat documents their experiences, posted on the r/daniellarson subreddit.

"He has an incredibly childish view of sex and what sex is like, to the point he idolizes sex and has very weird fantasies and ideas of how sex works. This furthers the point that he has a very childish mind, potentially even because of sexual abuse in the past."

"He’s VERY intrigued on furthering his sexual education. Kinda like how when most of us had to watch “the movie” growing up before graduating elementary school. It was funny, it was new, and just the prospect of talking about it in school was kinda exciting when we were like 11. Back in 2021 Daniel used to add me and a bunch of people from the Larson lore (i.e. Sabbath, Lil Sid, etc) to these group chats where he’d literally be like “Okay so has anyone ever had sex? What did it feel like? Was it warm? What did you think about during it?” Super strange, he’d just fire off questions like that. I definitely have screenshots somewhere in Google photos."[18]

"Are you ok with telling me what it felt like"

Daniel shows a lack of understanding around sex, often wondering and asking if rape feels any good at all. He is very apathetic about consent and to a larger extent, rape. When a troll pretending to be Grace VanderWaal told him that she was being raped, he asked if it felt good and various other questions as to what being raped was like. This was presumably so Daniel could get off to the thought of his favorite celebrity and long-time crush engaging in sexual activity. Perhaps he asked these questions because the troll was pretending to be Grace, but even people who aren't Grace VanderWaal are asked similar questions.

This behavior is most likely explained by his ignorance about the world, which causes him to be quite naïve about how bad rape actually is. To Daniel, it is nothing more than another word for sex.

Pedophilia

Main Article: Pedophilia

Pedophilia has always been a touchy subject for Daniel. During the initial leaking of Daniel's Pinterest account, he had at first attempted to deny all claims that he was a pedophile, pretending he hadn't even known what Pinterest was, before backtracking and boldly admitting it to the camera.

Daniel's pedophilia dates as far back to when he was 18, where he had seen 12 year-old Grace VanderWaal on America's Got Talent. Daniel's grandmother Nancy Shimer told Daniel that he would have a chance at dating Grace, which resulted in Daniel's years long obsession with Grace, sexual fantasies about Grace, and stalking[Citation needed]. Even though Grace is now an adult, during the years when Daniel started TikTok she was still underage, and Daniel did not shy away from talking about her in inappropriate ways. When messaging with trolls who pretended to be Grace, Daniel had (and still presumably has) a habit of sending photos of Grace from her childhood which he attempted to sexualize[Citation Needed].

Daniel is well aware of the allegations of pedophilia against him, and has vehemently denied it. To try to salvage his reputation, when he spoke to a person he thought was a minor on Kik, he changed his name to "Bill Carter" in an attempt to evade suspicion and throw people off his scent. Events such as this highlight that Daniel is aware that what he's doing is wrong, although he shows no sign of stopping.

Additionally, on January 16, 2023, Daniel admitted on a livestream that he is indeed a pedophile, admitting so to "be able to put an end to it", which was screen-recorded by Reddit user Competitive-Poem-206 and posted to the subreddit.[19]

Sex Toys

Daniel has made numerous purchases for sex toys, his go-to toy being a fleshlight, or "pocket pussy".

Danny you dirty dog.

On July 30th, 2023, he purchased one of them from a sex shop while speaking to another fake Grace troll.[20] The fleshlight was bought using money that Bob Proctor had supplied to Daniel to buy essentials such as food, water, and clothes, which he never did.

In these messages, Daniel claims that he was getting something for "us", as if the troll was going to feel Daniel using the fleshlight. Using Bob's money, he purchased a fleshlight from a sex shop (which sex shop is unknown), and showed it off to the troll. Daniel lost the bag he kept the fleshlight in.

On August 15th, 2023, Daniel purchased 4 more fleshlights, 2 of them resembling a man's anus. Daniel claimed to have spent $500 dollars that day. Daniel's reasoning for buying all four instead of just one is unknown. Daniel's obsession with buying expensive things instead of saving his resources while homeless is a mystery. Due to Daniel's homelessness, there is a very strong chance that if he ever gets around to using these toys, they will most likely remain uncleaned and absolutely filthy.

When Daniel was arrested in Boulder, a fleshlight could be seen in bodycam footage of the officer searching his backpack. The fleshlight was not removed by the officer.

Usage of Drugs

While he doesn't often show it, Daniel has used both prescription and more illicit drugs. He has largely abandoned the usage of prescription drugs likely owing to their high cost and his lack of insurance, but he has drank and consumed marijuana (albeit through a hotbox, and not of his own volition) before. There is no evidence (yet, at least) to suggest Daniel has smoked tobacco or done any hard drugs (which can range in nature from psychedelic mushrooms to methamphetamine.)

Alcohol

There is some evidence to suggest at least a few of his meltdowns can be attributed to alcohol usage, with at least a part of the tech destruction spree in July of 2022 having Daniel claim he slammed a device on the concrete.

Drinky.jpg

His alcoholic beverage of choice is beer, with Daniel being known to have stated he was going out for beers at least once.

Gotta have that beer.jpg

Daniel claims alcoholism is part of what ruined his life, stating he was pressured into alcohol (perhaps by past Management) and became addicted. He can be seen drinking it whenever he is more well off than usual and oftentimes when he is at sporting events, see Timeline. It is generally believed that if Daniel was better off, his drinking would likely be far more regular, perhaps to the point of it being a problem.

Marijuana

Daniel has been under the influence of marijuana before, though the only evidence of this comes as a result of being hotboxed by fans. Daniel's reaction in this particular case appears to be excitedly screaming and yelling, perhaps as a result of the specific strain of marijuana being a sativa strain, or at the least a sativa-heavy hybrid strain. It could also be possible that Daniel had a negative experience that caused him to panic, although his excitement generally suggests the former.

Other Issues

Red Robin Poisoning

Daniel admitted himself to the hospital on April 11, 2024 complaining about a "stomach bug" after vomiting a lot, likely from poisoned food from Red Robin. He was discharged a day later, before coming back due to migraines.
