Sort of. The scene involves Adam and Natalia. She consents (reluctantly) to having sex with him, but he does things to her that she doesn’t consent to. Viewers have gone back and forth on if this was a true rape scene, but it is worth mentioning because it can be triggering.

In season 2, episode 7; rabbits first thought to be pets are eaten for dinner,
but we do not see them slaughtered. Hannah pets them in the beginning and is later served rabbit for dinner and is appalled.

A previously mentioned pet turtle dies but we don't see it die. However it is shown dead in a plastic bottle (not extremely easy to make out but visible, no gore or close-ups.) A part that might be triggering is that they carry it around in the bottle and pretend to play football with it and drink out of it.

Season 2, Episode 6: In the first scene right after Hannah says goodbye to the man she’s eating with she v****s.
Season 3, Episode 10: opening scene again, Hannah is partying and it suddenly cuts to her v****ing. Visuals and I think audio too.
Season 6, Episode 1: When Hannah is asleep in bed she wakes up and v****s suddenly.
Season 6, Episode 5: Hannah’s mom says “I’ll see my own death” and then immediately v****s.
——
I’ve watched the series many times and if there are anymore instances, there aren’t visual because they are what bothers me and I’d know. Definitely mentions here and there. I think there’s an audio instance at some point too when you see Jessa lean over a sink at one point from the back and v**** but I personally didn’t find it triggering and also kind of saw it coming.

Most of the main characters struggle with their mental health, although not all of their diagnoses are named.
