Monica’s mother is really awful at many points. She is very critical of Monica’s weight, considers her to be a failure and strongly prefers Ross. It could be upsetting for anyone with an emotionally abusive parent.

There's a few instances of stalking and peeping. There's an episode where Phoebe is stalked, where she is mistaken to be her twin sister, Ursula. They later become romantically involved. There's is also a peeping tom in one episode, who looks into Monica and Rachel's apartment.
There is also a episode where there's a crazy girl who thinks Joey is the character he acts in his show. She watched him on his show obsessively, which may be a bit 'stalker-ish'
Some may thing that Eddie is a stalker too, when Eddie watched Chandler sleeping.
The main characters for the first three seasons like to look at their window and watch the old naked man across the street.
There's probably more arguable scenes for stalker-y, there's a lot of crazy characters in friends, so by default there are some stalkers.

Not really but Joey has a girlfriend who jokingly punches his arm a lot. The ‘friends’ make fun of him for being hurt/upset by it because she is very small and he is supposed to be a ‘man.’ Could be upsetting for men who have been subject to domestic violence and been gaslighted on account of their masculinity.

In S5 Ep8, The One With All the Thanksgivings, Phoebe is shown twice in 'past life' flashbacks as a war nurse. Both times, there is an explosion sound and her arm falls off (accompanied by laughs, not intended to be upsetting). A small repeating spurt of blood is shown. It is not excessively gory but definitely enough to trigger those very sensitive to blood on screen.

okay this person took the ross dancing with the girls thing WAY too far, he doesn't dance with the fat girl because the other girls would stand on his feet, and ross doesn't want to get his feet crushed. it's all for comedy but could be offensive. it's nothing about him wanting to have sex with little girls😭

yes, phoebe’s mother died by suicide when phoebe was younger. like the other comments say, phoebe talks about it a lot- but more importantly, Phoebe jokes about her mother’s death a lot. to the point that it could seem callous or desensitized (she’ll even use her mother’s death to get her way or get someone on her side, mostly in a joking way) but it’s important to know that she is not. It’s a sweet representation of the acceptance in phoebe’s character, and accurate to how a lot of people integrate loss by humor. I believe it’s a nice layer to who Phoebe is, but if you’ve had a recent parent death or any parent death by suicide, know there are for sure going to be lots of jokes about that.

I don't know if it counts here, as it's more of a disorder, but monica has pretty serious OCD (they call it by name, too, though I don't temember if in a 'jokey' way, though it is actually OCD). It varies if people make fun of it or they are sympathetic and tolerant towatds her.

There is one episode in the first season when Chandler and a woman gets trapped in an ATM because there is a black-out. There are some other scenes where people or several people are in very small rooms, but they are not really claustrophobic. Also, they sometimes get stuck in things (door, once in a turkey), that can be triggering, but they are always fine after.

yes and no, the middle finger is mentioned multiple times and ross and monica have a gesture they use and they say it’s giving the finger without giving the finger. in season 3, pheobe says ‘it’s a shame you can’t see what finger im holding up’

No but lots of problematic gay jokes and plot lines that portray gay people in a negative light. Chandler is often teased for seeming ‘gay’ (he is not); an episode where upon getting a female roommate Joey ‘acts like a woman.’
Ross becomes concerned at one point that his son is playing with a Barbie & is generally hostile towards his ex-wife (who left him for a woman) and her [female] partner. He occasionally gets paranoid about future girlfriends being gay.

Chandler’s “father” is either a trans woman or a VERY convincing drag queen ,but either way a good chunk of the humor relies on this

In Carol and Susan's wedding, basically the only straight women there were Rachel, her mom, Monica and Phoebe. All the others were lesbian and very stereotyped (like if for being lesbians they'd only know lesbian women).

If you are triggered by this, unfortunately you simply shouldn’t watch this show. There are too many instances to count, and they are constantly showing flashbacks/ making fun of Monica because she was fat when she was younger.

Two of the main characters (Monica and ross) are jewish. Everyone is very accepting and supportive about this and no one really thinks twice about it.

yes, basically constantly, by many characters who are supposed to be likeable. it’s always for laughs or treated so normal it’s ignored. the main theme of the entire show is pretty much single people seeking sexual partners, which can be done without objectification, but they often sexually objectify the people they’re attracted to.
joey in particular sexually objectifies even his women friends very often. it’s clear he pretty much sees women as porn objects, even his friends who he cares about and probably would like to respect/thinks he respects.
see incest answers for a particularly triggering episode with Ross sexually objectifying his cousin.

There is a lot of kissing and "making out". Sex is not shown explicitly, but sometimes characters are shown afterwards, naked in bed. There is a lot of talk and jokes about sex, and quite a lot of times, when they watch p***o on TV in the background, and the sound effects can be heard.

Pheobe was previously homeless and talks about her experiences frequently. She also meets people she used to know while living on the streets, including one who still might as he attempts to mug Pheobe and Ross in one episode
