The whole point of the story is that you're controlling the characthers every movement and his sanity is questioned many times whenever he's close to find this out

In my run-through when I entered PAC in the dad's safe, it showed that the dad was involved with his childhood trauma.

The father is shown to have been in on experiments/spying on the son. He also holds him up against the wall if you fight the therapist.

If you go to Colin's he will offer you drugs. There are also scenes throughout related to Stefan's mental health medication.

One of the alternate paths includes an ending where it's revealed that Stefan's life has been controlled and everyone in it is fake. His mother's death was even faked for psychological torture.

Somewhat. Stefan is seen sawing off his dad's limbs after he kills him. But as mentioned, at this point Stefan's father is dead.

Depending on who you choose to jump, there is a death scene involving a character jumping off a balcony. If you choose Stefan, he jumps, but you don't see the impact. If you choose Colin, you see the character jump, a bit of the fall, and the body after the impact.

At one point I had the choice to kill the dad or not and chose no. Later,when I chose PAX at the safe, he ended up killing him without giving the choice. The mother also dies which is revealed if you select talk about mom" with the therapist, and it appears this has to be chosen at some point to go further in the game.

During one story branch, you must make the choice of whether Stefan or Colin should jump off a balcony. If you choose Stefan, the fall is briefly seen but not the results. If you choose Colin, we see him jump off the balcony, hear the impact of his landing, and see a far-away shot of his body. Even if you make changes that result in you not being on the balcony, Colin is missing until you completely restart, reminding Stefan that he is now dead in this timeline. There is another ending where Stefan can go with his mother on the train, knowing it's going to crash and he will die. His death is not seen, but we hear the train crash.

If not taking your pills count as self harming then yes, other than that I don't think there are any self harming scenes. Unless I lost some secret ending

The Pax demon ending has a quick scare the might trigger epilepsy. The LSD scene has neon lights moving with Stefan's fingers, but they aren't flashing.

The main character takes medication for an unknown mental illness, presumably anxiety - you can make a choice to throw away or flush his medication, as it "stifles his creativity." There is an ending that implies he was driven to mental illness as an experiment. Another character is said to have "gone crazy" and murdered his family - this is brought up several times, with the emphasis being that he murdered his wife because he was driven to madness. There is an alternate ending where Stefan's therapist suggests that he is boring because of his mental illness and traumatic past.

Stefan murderers his father brutally. One of the options you can choose is to chop up the body. If you do, his severed head appears in the next scene. Stefan also writes on a wall of his cell with his blood. Toward the beginning of the movie, viewers see photos of a murder scene in a book.
