No, but a teen is emotionally neglected by her dad, who's too busy with his carrier and getting with women. Apparently he's been neglecting her her entire life and has never really gotten to know her. Towards the end of the movie he realises how badly he's been failing her, starts doing his best to make up for it, and does so pretty successfully.

No, I wouldn't say so. However, there might be a trigger. A woman has been waiting for six days to hear from a man she's slept with; she thought (for pretty good reason, based on his past behaviour towards her) that they were heading towards a relationship, so she's hurt that he's shown no interest after they slept together. He finds her standing outside his building in the rain, extremely hurt and upset, wanting confront him, and she tells him that she's been waiting there for hours. (They talk, she gets an explanation, calms down and leaves, and we don't see her again - which is why I wouldn't call it stalking.)

There's no real alcoholism, I'd say, but a couple of scenes may be a problem. There's one scene in which a man is alone in his bathroom, doing some physically slightly unpleasant things (it's all comedic). There's a bottle of wine standing by the sink, and at one point he says to himself: "[unintelligible to me, but something along the lines of 'I need'] an anaesthetic", takes a gulp from the bottle, then utters the single word "beautiful" about the wine. In another scene, a somewhat troubled woman says something like "I should just get hammered". She doesn't get visibly drunk, though.

There's a cat; it isn't harmed at all. However, since its owner (or at least it seems the person is its owner) is just about to commit suicide, it would've been left to fend for itself, which is sad to imagine. However, the cat is able to come and go from the apartment, so at least it probably wouldn't have starved to death. The suicide doesn't happen, as someone shows up in time and makes a crucial difference.

No. However, two people have sex, and the man is completely aware that the woman is very much into him, has been hurt before, and is very afraid of being hurt again. Based on his sensitive and understanding behaviour and his overt interest in her, she has reason to believe that they may be heading for a relationship, but he doesn't call her for days afterwards; instead he pursues another woman. The first woman shows up crying after six days, extremely upset, feeling jilted. Only when she becomes convinced that he's gay does she calm down, and they part amiably. The upset woman doesn't know that the man has been pursuing the other woman, but you MIGHT argue that he cheated on her a tiny bit.

No, BUT someone contemplates suicide throughout the movie, and everything points toward her being just about to do it (she's already placed a note on her bed for her parents), when someone intervenes and says something that makes all the difference.

Someone thinks about it regularly throughout the movie, but it doesn't happen and we don't actually see anything harmful, aside from a suicide note.

Someone does regularly think about suicide, and towards the end of the movie writes a suicide note, but the main character arrives and stops them before they can act on their thoughts. We don't see them actually doing anything harmful.
