No but it does feature a stalker, constant references to being stalked and lots of on-screen murders and violence. I don't think it would be suitable for anyone who finds stalking of physical violence triggering.

A lot. Ive watched it a few times because its really good, but there is a lot of triggers and anxiety inducing scenes. Especially if you've been stalked or involuntarily hospitalized.

Nobody is seen willingly taking illegal drugs. They take the medication that the staff give them.

No but there is a scene which comes very close to being a sexual assault which would be triggering to victims of SA. This happens while the main character is locked in solitary confinement, so it will be obvious before the scene actually happens if you'd like to skip.

The MC knees another character in the groin for trying to touch her; it's not clear if there was actual ill-intent or not, or if it was the MC's stalking-related paranoia

However, a character does threaten suicide as a means of sexual manipulation which could be triggering to some viewers.

I wouldn't say it's necessarily a sad ending but it is a open-ended and certainly not a positive one.
