There is lying and manipulation. It's not gaslighting in the typical sense of an abuser/victim dynamic where the abuser convinces the victim that they are insane.

Not stalked, but there is a scene where the main character leaves her house only to be confronted by another person who she does not want to see. She was also trying to evade a horde of reporters at her front door.

The main character panics sometimes and is seen struggling to breathe.
SPOILERS: Another character is seen struggling to breathe and speak after being injected with a fatal dosage of morphine.

There is a throat slit (with slight audio gore) but it is easily avoidable. (look away or skip ahead whenever you see Harlan put a knife to his throat)

An important plot point is that one character vomits every time she lies. This happens about 4 times in the movie. The first 3 times she vomits into a container or semi-offscreen so we don't see much, but we hear noises. The final time she vomits onto another character's face, and it's really graphic. There are also a couple of other moments when she gags but doesn't vomit.

Character gets anxious about being caught doing something, character gets anxious when faced with the prospect of lying, debatable whether they're anxiety attacks but it can be intense for some people

I was somewhat affected by the old man's bedroom (which is rather small and windowless, has sloping walls and is filled with objects) and the less-than-full-size-door, narrow hallway and narrow stairway leading to the room. In fact, the door was what bothered me the most.

Noting that "Does someone die by suicide?" is treated as a separate question, with the implication that this question concerns attempts that don't result in death, then the answer to this question is No.

A fair amount of swearing throughout. Two uses of the "f-word", and one scene where a character repeatedly says "eat s---".

May not count as ableism per se, but an elderly character is dismissed as senile and unaware, treated by many characters as a background feature rather than a person.

All the other characters mock him, but there is a 16-year-old alt-right minor character. He doesn't say anything directly anti-Semitic but he is called a N**i several times.

throughout the movie we hear from several suspects that all describe marta in very disrespectful ways (not outward racist but potentially triggering nonetheless) It is an important part of the narrative that that makes them bad people and that they are in the wrong. so even if its effectively used for character building its still in the movie

debatable. harlan's medication in the film is said to be for his shoulder injury and to help him sleep.
But, Harlan is given said meds through a PICC which would imply a longer-term illness. This is never discussed or brought up in the film however.

There are implications that the grandmother could have some form of dementia, but it's unknown if she actually does.
