Daniel’s Mental Issues
Autism
Daniel is speculated to have autism. Autism, formally classified as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), refers to a loosely defined, but interconnected, range of neurological challenges with social interaction and communication. While Daniel has yet to receive a formal diagnosis for the disorder, there are many signs he suffers from ASD.
His naïveté, poorly developed social skills, and the many meltdowns Daniel has are all symptoms of ASD. In addition, Daniel has been speculated to have sensory issues. He rarely, if ever, bathes, which has some theories to form that Daniel may have hypersensitive issues to bathing— he may be hypersensitive to water running on his skin. In turn, Daniel regularly smells absolutely rancid and has had documented issues with foot fungus, trench foot, and scabies, which have spawned in more speculations that Daniel may be hypo-sensitive to those areas of his body, and perhaps to smell.
As sensitive in ASD is a spectrum and Daniel has never gotten an official diagnosis, we cannot know for sure.
