So nothing major. No one really has a diagnosis or anything but SPOILER there are thought of death and there's a little television spot where they show like a depressed barbie doll with crying and stuff and some illnesses are mentioned but nothing major.

A lot of discussion that occurs between 2 main characters heavily implies a lot of dissociative symptoms. The general tone of the movie is incredibly depressing, and one of the protagonists is heavily implied to experience depression

The movie opens with a woman with bipolar disorder engaging in an act of murder-suicide, with her leaving a worrying message to her surviving sister beforehand. Dani, the sister, herself has a history of anxiety and dissociation and is still recovering from the loss of her family.

The team say the unsub shows signs of OCD manifested as germaphobia.
They're using the OCD=cleanliness-and-order trope.

this movie was pretty triggering if you have the flavor of mental illness where you’re sometimes not sure of reality

Louis' brother has some kind of mental illness, probably schizophrenia, but hard to say since he lived in the 1910s. In season 2 Daniel asks Louis if he's schizophrenic (because he's had very vivid hallucinations) and Louis answers no after a small pause. It is left ambiguous if he's schizophrenic but he's at least mentally unwell.

Mental illness is a major significant theme, and all four girls have various symptoms. Sayori explicitly has depression. Yuri is anxiety-prone, has a self-harm habit, and becomes obsessed with the protagonist in Act 2. Natsuki is from an abusive household, and it's implied her tsundere personality is partly trauma responses. Monika is dealing with an existential crisis and can bring up the mental health of the player, the other girls, and herself in Act 3.
