Eeeeh.. Super wide question. Please elaborate.

1. Lags. The poisonous NPC bites you, but you don't see it because of lags
2. You're being bitten by leeches
3. You're being "spit at" by a Graydwarf Shaman
4. You're standing near a wild beehive.
5. If you're at someone's server, and you're alone at your base, near a campfire, and keep getting poisoned, I'd say someone is fooling around with console commands/hacks/mods.

Are you sure it's poison? Maybe it's smoke in your house.

That is rather intricate.
Few questions and tests to do:
1. Have you, by any chance, built your base inside/in place of a previously existed, abandoned house?
2. Is the poisoning localized? Can you find out the exact spot you're getting poisoned at, the most? Which area? Is the area moving? Does it move towards you if you wait for a bit outside it?
3. Is it limited to being inside/outside?

I have a suspicion there is an underground beehive.

Literally what it sounds like, a beehive that's underground. This game does have beehives and the bees will attack you, so either there's a beehive aboveground that you're completely missing, or maybe a beehive got bugged and for some reason spawned underground.

If it's happening solely in/near your house and you're still just in the starting area (Meadows), either bees or smoke are the only thing I can think of that can seem like DoT, and it's not smoke since you said you don't have a campfire indoors and that would only damage you indoors and right above the campfire, so beehive is the only conclusion. If this is the case, you kind of don't have the tools to deal with this if it's bugged and underground, so go ahead and look around the inside of the structure and see if there's a beehive somewhere.

Also you could just move to a different area, you probably wouldn't wanna just have one single base anyway.

Yeah it sounds like a beehive. You can shoot them to collect the queen and make your own honey.. a great resource you will need. So look around and listen for the sound of flying insects. If you repaired an old house it may be in an upper peak section, I have even seen them part way through walls so you could get hit inside or out.

Gotta be a wild hive lurking somewhere, yeah. The game does also occasionally spawn enemies inside terrain objects but probably not at your house.

Would you hear an underground bee hive ?

You can hear them. Drived me nuts one time.
I also had one beehive who was not direct on the building attached but a bit bugged over the building. which I didn't hear on the other side and only noticed because I disassembled the building for the mats.
So it can be both, I guess.

There's a beehive in your house. Look around, they are fairly obvious. You only get poisoned by them if you go within a few feet of them.
