As the movie progresses, you watch as the father slowly goes insane/possessed. His actions toward his child would be considered abusive.
Plus, there was mentioned history of the father's abusive behavior toward the child off screen.

Jack is an alcoholic and does appear to get drunk later in the film. However, while we do see him drinking, it is unclear whether this is just an illusion.

I still marked yes just because we learn about the murders of two young girls, and although this happened before the events of the movie it's mentioned a lot and we see visions of the gorey aftermath.

While he's not outright stated to have DID, I honestly feel this movie is quite possibly one of the best representations of DID out there; Danny's alter Tony is mostly shown working to protect him, and a lot of the backstory regarding trauma from his father gives context to his DID.

this movie has a complicated relationship with the idea of native americans. theres native americans on the food and the hotel is built on an "indian burial ground". the movie intentionally does this representation from a distant perspective, but it can feel like its misrepresentation.

one of jacks illusions (?) is a fully naked woman getting out of a bathtub which he later makes out with. the woman is never seen again, has no name, and says nothing. in the movie she is only seen as something sexual and i think it’s pretty objectifying. however, it is worth mentioning, this woman is most likely a ghost and not real.
