Yes, several children. One character is abused by her alcoholic mother. Another knew her uncle had sexual thoughts about her because she could read his mind.

There is obviously lot of blood shown throughout the series and intermittent gore scenes. For example when vampires are killed they explode in a fountain of blood and ooze

Characters often strangle each other to get them to stop talking. I don’t recall any strangulation-related deaths, but there may have been a couple at most.

Early on in the show, there is a death that involves an animal hanging from a ceiling fan by a rope, but this was likely not the cause of death (murder). So it may be triggering still, in this regard

Several central characters are cops. The police are depicted as being flawed but overall good people doing their best to protect the community. There are scenes where cops engage in illegal activity like beating a suspect for information, which is depicted by the show as morally appropriate

No cancer, but there is a disease that slowly kills vampires around the end of season 6 and in 7 in case that is too similar for you.

There is a flashback in s5 ep3 where a character slits her arms in order to make a vampire turn her (she lives). A character tries overdosing on meds when shes left alone in the bathroom. A vampire stakes himself while under a spell. A character hires a hitman for himself in s5. A major character stakes himself in the finale. A character has a bath scene where he eyes the razor on the wall (and its implied he might kill himself) but only shaves his head. Major plot point in s4 involves vampires walking into the sun while under a spell. A vampire enters a tanning booth with the intention of committing suicide

Terry obviously suffers from PTSD throughout the entire series.
For how his story ends SPOILERS:
In season 6 episode 9 Terry is shot and killed by someone he hired to do so because he couldn’t live with the guilt.

In passing. In s4 a character says something alongs the lines of “fat and old” and is scolded for it. S5 ep5 uses the words “fatties first” when a prisoner tries to persuade a vampire not to eat him

Both Sookie and Jason Are kind of looked down on. Sookie for being unsexual and a virgin in the begining. Its decipted as shame. And Jasons for being extremly sexual active, and him mocked for this. Also Jessica kinda stays a virgin bc of healing reasons and its wierdly glorified.

In technically, the main character’s relationship with two different vampires is an age gap; they are both hundreds of years old and she is in her twenties, i believe.

Kinda, alot of supernatural beings sleep with humans. Some Are shapeshifter and turn into animal at a point, and probably Are with other shapeshifters as humans or animals, it might be weird.
