Damien sees that she's not healing with his blood & he gets her hospitalized. As he talks to an unconscious Bonnie, he says that he's deeply hurt to have put her and Stephen's  lives in danger both of who tried to save him which brings him to think that it'd be best to take himself out of the equation as to no longer bother his loved ones.
