There is one scene where girl's eyes roll back into her head and become miss-shaped, don't know whether it can be considered mutilation.

Wyatt’s monsters possess people and “turn them evil”. This is sometimes depicted by faces warping and such.

No, but I don’t know where else to put this- this movie is based entirely around the question of if a man is delusional or not and how that is harmful for him. Without spoiling, just know that it can be extremely distressing for ppl who deal with psychosis. Please proceed with caution.

Wyatt, his friend Christian, and Christian's co-worker/girlfriend Mara all wait in the hospital while Mara's friend gets treated for an injury she acquired after a fall. There are no graphic scenes inside the hospital, only shots of the trio waiting in the hallway and joking around out of boredom.

No, but there is one scene where character is about to nail his hand to a table. And another one where he puts nail-gun against his mouth.

Past attempt mentioned, although we don't go into detail. A character puts a nail gun in his mouth, doesn't pull the trigger, and then immediately tries to put the nail through his hand. Could be interpreted as a suicide attempt.

Throughout the film, the viewer is unsure if Wyatt is delusional or not, but his beliefs do cause him to become threatening on occasion, if not actually hurting anyone.

The protagonist's hallucinations and visions could, at times, be described as anxiety attacks. He becomes very nervous and goes outside or down to the basement throughout different parts of the film. However, most of the time, the anxiety is looming over him in more subtle ways.

It never gets discussed, but one of the main characters has a flashback discussion with his wife talking about how he needs a good job if he's going to be a dad. They never talk about where the wife is or anything though.

Some brief moments showing blood or viscera, when a character hallucinates. In one scene, a woman's hands are shown resting in a pool of blood on a tabletop. In another, there's a bloodied, fleshy cloth on a floor.
