One character is said to have committed suicide but we later find out that it was a lie.
Another main character frames her death as suicide, she is alive though and only faked it.

The main characters father is emotionally and sort of physically abusive. He is extremely controlling and pits his children against each other in order for them to work harder. Furthermore, he makes the two children hit each other as a form of punishment.

The controlling behavior can be seen in multiple episodes but it's arguably the most obvious in E8.

S1 E7 Around 3:14
Another side character has an abusive mother. She starves her child in order for her to look good in child actor auditions and prohibits her from eating which results in a bad eating disorder. This abuse is only portrayed in this specific scene.

Obsession is one of the main themes of the show. Stalking however isn't present a lot. The main character steals data from the other main characters phone though and tracks her location through her phone without the other one knowing. This is also a form of stalking but "traditional" stalking as in following around does rarely occur.

A main theme of the show as well. Multiple characters show signs of addiction throughout the series, like having to up their dosage, anxiety and withdrawal symptoms when not taking enhancement drugs.

This is a main theme of the show so if pill usage triggers you I'd advise to skip this one since it contains drug use in basically every episode.
The drugs are treated as normal and casual too since everyone in the school is very used to everyone taking them to withstand the pressure and to achieve good academical results.
The drugs are enhancement drugs which help the characters to stay awake and focus so they can study more and better.

Brief shot of a bloody tail on a road which implies that the animal has been run over and killed. Said animal gets buried and later dug up. There is no actual shot of the dead animal though and we don't see what animal it was.

I'd argue that holding rats for lab experimentation is animal abuse. One gets injected with something but nothing happens to it. So on-screen there is no "real" animal abuse, at least it is not portrayed.

Timestamp: From 16:26 to 17:27; Flashback of the main character getting beaten up by a bunch of bullies from her school. Rather graphic and very cruel.

At around 28:10 the same scene is referenced again through some short shots and the original audio from the scene.

Right at the beginning of the episode there are some shots of the ocean but only the shore and beach is shown, no underwater shots.

A few minutes later from 6:38 to 7:38 there are underwater shots with some tense/chilly music. The main character is submerged in the water and sinking. She does however, not struggle to breath or anything like that. The water and scenery is merely there to show how her mind is focusing on studying now due to the enhancement drugs she took just before.

Okay I’m back. In episode 3, at around 26 minutes in, a girl stands in front of a mirror on weighing scales, sees her weight and.. it’s shown that she’s bulimic. It’s really fast and I don’t know if there’s audio, I covered my ears. No visual other than her putting her fingers in her mouth and running to the bathroom.

Main character uses a syringe to "feed" a lab rat some fluid. Very brief shot, the rat does not appear to be harmed and the scene cuts right after.
