A mouse is killed. When we see the body, it looks to be a genuine deceased mouse that you could purchase as snake food in pet stores. I believe they made the incision required for the scene and added fake blood for effect.

A body of a decapitated mouse at 56:59. It's unfortunately very realistic. I believe they may have used a real deceased mouse that you can get as snake food, made the physical alteration, and used fake blood for effect.
To skip the scene, go to 57:08.

The jumpscare the other commentor is referring to happens at 11:16, when Jessica is checking near the stairs.
Skip to 11:20 to avoid it.

There's a mild jumpscare at 26:09 while Jessica is swimming.
It's very tame & short, but if you must skip it, go to 26:12.

The next jumpscare is at 46:21, right after Jessica is led to a small waterfall.
To avoid the scare, skip to 46:28.

It isn't directly stated whether these are anxiety attacks, but there are multiple occasions in which Jessica becomes distressed and panicky.
