He thinks his baby is with his friend and the baby almost drowns but he didn’t ever intentionally hurt him. He’s a good dad.

(SPOILER) right after the baby scene, his hallucinations "confront" Nash and he accidentally shoves his wife into a wall. it wasn't intentional but the scene still feels domestic violence-y

No characters are gaslighted but the movie kinda gaslights its audience. Some characters and events that aren't "real" are portrayed just like "real"

The main character suffers from schizophrenia and, while hallucinating, leaves his baby in a tub and it almost drowns. Luckily the mother quickly runs up to save him.

(SPOILER) There is a scene in the hospital, after the scene with Nash's first meeting with his wife. The nurse calls, "Code Red" on the phone, then the camera pans over to Nash's closed door and we see that he's cut himself where he thought the numbers on his wrist once were. There is a lot of blood

The movie have a several mental institution scene. In a long period of time the protagonist is kidnapped by a psychiatrist and nursers, is put in a manicomio agains his will, is set in a white squared room closed, transported by nurses contentions in some scenes and even got electroshock therapy.
If you have some psychiatric or mental hospital related trauma or trigger I highly recommend you not see the movie or watch it with care. Be beware.
