A character mentions that they missed a specific training due to having been "hungover" at the time. That's it.

One character is established as having been addicted to drugs in the past. Another character takes a "stimulant" medication while in recovery for an injury and appears to be more hyper than usual. Substance use is not depicted onscreen, however.

There are giant centipede type aliens on the planet they go to in the first two episodes. Very hard to watch. Whenever Murderbot tells the humans to leave an area because something is coming, they are coming from underground.

Murderbot attempts to kill itself in an effort to protect its clients. It is addressed more as shutting a faulty machine down.

There is a very uncomfortable scene where Murderbot, an autistic-coded character, is forced to maintain eye contact. It is framed as a bad thing, and everyone is uncomfortable with it

In one scene, a robotic character is damaged, and its perspective and view of reality become hallucinatory.

Murderbot is hooked up to multiple cameras I. The main habitat, and watches people through the cameras at all times. It also does this when it doesn’t want to make eye contact.

Unintentionally and quickly corrected. Murderbot uses it/its pronouns, but is occasionally referred to as "he" with people who don't know better. Otherwise, the show is very trans and nonbinary positive.
