Alma Garrett struggles with a laudanum addiction. Leon, who works for Cy Tolliver, is addicted to some injectable opiate, and his addiction makes him vulnerable to exploitation by Tolliver. There is frequent reference to drug use and dependence by the whores at both the Bella Union and the Gem, and there's at least one scene where one of them is shown shooting up.

Season 1 Episode 6
In the beginning of the episode, Seth's horse is shot with an arrow, he rears up and makes a noise, then falls over and is dead. Not prolonged but you see it laying there again later as well.

Characters mention being sexually abused as children, and it's suggested that Alma's father might prey on Sofia, but no children are sexualized by the filmmakers.

Lots of homophobic and misogynistic language, as well as ethnic slurs directed at Asians, Blacks, and Native Americans. One Black character is called "N****r General."
