| “ | Grace vanderwaal has made me so suicidal I have beaten myself to where it hurts to move | ” |
Daniel Larson is a habitual self harmer. This manifests differently based on his intentions, and is likely caused by his mental disorders such as ADHD, Bipolar, and Autism. Suicidal behaviour is also common from Daniel. He has threatened to kill himself only when in distress, though he never follows through with these threats. What is more likely is that he is just doing it to express his distress, to obtain information, for attention, or in an attempt to stop something.
Circumstances
When Daniel actually hurts himself, it is usually because he is extremely upset at his current circumstances. When he is upset, he often does things such as slam his head into his hands, punch holes in walls, hit himself, and other minor forms of self harm. Evidence of such occurrences can be found after the Häagen-Dazs incident, as a result of which he slammed his head into his hands, or the destruction of the Airbnb, or punching holes into the Pink Room. His mental health issues almost certainly play a factor in why he does so. This is also usually accompanied by unusual movement / biting of his tongue, known as the "Angry Tongue" by fans.
In addition, it can also be Daniel trying to manipulate people, trying to get people to back off, take sympathy on Daniel, guilt trip them (mainly Bob), or other unknown motives.
Threats
Daniel often threatens suicide, but never follows through. He likely does this for attention, as he doesn't have anyone (beside trolls) to give him any, not even his own parents. An example of this can be seen when Daniel destroyed the pink room. In the description of a TikTok showcasing the destruction, Daniel typed, "Tonight is the end everyone." Another example is after Tina VanderWaal messaged him, asking him to leave their family alone, Daniel responded with a threat against his own life. Below are several messages from Daniel showcasing these tendencies.
"I understand
I'm ending my life tonight
Everyone has messed up everything.
I understand what you and your family..."
Other than suicidal threats, Daniel does not usually threaten regular self harm. It seems to be a spontaneous reaction, likely as a result of autism. Daniel often posts that he is hitting himself; but it is unknown if he actually is hitting himself when he makes these posts.
