Not sure if it counts but multiple characters are in a horrific accident and has to have many surgeries and be brought back to life, one of the characters then gains superhuman abilities but when she gets mad she loses her ability to control herself and kills people and destroys things

The villain in season 1 has the power of mind control. Jessica Jones has PTSD as a result and it may be triggering to survivors of emotional abuse.

Somewhere from 6 to 7 minute mark in S1:E2, there's a large bug crawling around on the wall. She flicks it and then it pans to a scene where you see it up close from the sink drain. Later in around 48:30 until 49:15, it comes back up from the sink.

During some of Jessica’s flashbacks the camera is shaky. The music generally changes during flashbacks so you can easily look away and know when it’s safe to look again.

So technically, it is only implied and not actually incestuous, but it’s more just like a very weird relationship between fraternal twins. They’re both very strange, and at first Jessica thinks they are a couple.
