Yes. A lot of talk of Juno’s past involves this, most notably in Juno Steel and the Monster’s Reflection, which does feature flashbacks (in a sense).

Child abuse is mentioned many times in the Juno Steel story line, as it is a prominent element of Juno's backstory, I would recommend against listening to the entire story line if it is a trigger for you.

Addiction
2
Yes. Juno Steel is described as having a past addiction, and a character is heard taking addictive drugs onscreen (though not shown, as it is a podcast) in the following episodes:

Juno Steel and the Clean Break parts 1 and 2, Juno Steel and the Blank Slate parts 1 and 2, and Juno Steel and the Next Page parts 1 and 2.

The main character in the Juno Steel storyline struggles with addiction, and another character’s past heavily discusses a problem with addiction. Additionally, this character becomes audibly addicted to a drug from Juno Steel and the Clean Break part 1 to Juno Steel and the Next Page part 2 (and it is a major plot point).

A character stuns a dog with a blaster. When someone else is upset because of this, the character says something along the lines of “Don’t worry, it was set to stun. At least I think it was.” This is not clarified at any point.

Once at the end of Juno Steel and the Blank Slate Part 1, around 29:10. It is commented on for the rest of the episode.

The show's creators have said that the population of Mars is mostly LGBT, so many characters that die may be LGBT, but there are some characters that die and are confirmed to be LGBT.

[SPOILER, HOMOPHOBIA TW] during the Lady of the Lake arc of the Second Citadel story line, a character who is SGA dies, and there are references to cultural homophobia.

In Juno Steel, two different things:

1. Many people in this universe suffer from severe radiation poisoning, which is typically mostly fatal. Two main characters have this, and there is a plotline about trying to find a cure for it.

2. In the later stages of Juno Steel, there is a major plotline about many people being kept on a sort of life support by medical means. While not explicitly stated to be terminal illness (to my knowledge), it is treated very very similarly.
