There is a mother who is shown to be overly critical of her daughter. However, it is depicted as well intentioned and misunderstanding the daughter's circumstances rather than abuse.

There are situations where a high school aged teenager in an adult woman's body is around the fiance of the adult woman. However, there is no kissing or sexual interaction. There is another scene where an adult woman in a teenager's body kisses a teenage love interest where it is unclear if he is over 18. However she is not shown to enjoy it and that is all that happens.

Towards the end of the film, a character is briefly abducted by their friends who grab her and cover their mouth to keep her from screaming. They tell her their plan and then threaten to cover her mouth with duct tape. Very brief and somewhat consensual

Someone's mouth is briefly covered to keep her from screaming. A character threatens to cover another character's mouth with duct tape. It's overall good natured to convince the character to go to an event she previously expressed wanting to go to.

No heads are squashed, but it's worth mentioning that after the two of them realize they've switched bodies, they decide to run at each other to try jolt themselves back, which results in them smacking their heads together hard.

Not directly, but the plot of the movie is a body swap comedy. The body swap is caused by fortune cookies and a character calls it a result of “strange Asian voodoo”. The racism is more disturbing than the possession

There are no mental institution scenes, but after the two of them realize they've switched bodies, Anna suggests going to a hospital, and her mother says that if they did they would be taken to a mental ward. It's also worth mentioning that the mother is a psychiatrist and holds several sessions throughout the movie.
