There are no bugs in the actual movie. However, if you watch the deleted scenes, there is a scene where Susanna sees a bug under her bed.

The main characters are all more or less abandoned by their parents. They are not children, but young adults.
They are placed in a mental health facility, but they are all at least emotionally abandoned and some of them also physically abandoned.

The restraint scenes can be extremely triggering for ppl who have themselves been hurt by the psychiatric systems.
Physical/violent restraining and the systemic restraining that is the removal of basic human rights, by the psychiatric systems.

The act is not shown, but the body is shown in a graphic way that will be triggering to those who are sensitive to the topic.

Minors are not sexualized on screen, but there's a lot of hints to at least one character being molested as a child and also currently by her father.
And another character having a "relationship" with her English teacher.
The characters are supposed to be 16-19 years old.

After the first scene, the next scene is Susanna in a hospital with doctors/nurses rushing around her (you will clearly be able to tell that the scene changed, and you have time to mute it after the scene change) and she leans over the side of the bed and v*s, no visual at all but I’ve been told that there was audio, so just mute it until she leans back into the bed

The vast majority of the movie happens within a psychiatric institution. There are some notable instances of staff saying pretty offensive things to patients about their conditions.

TheCassandraComplex
Some of the subject matter might be triggering for autistic people and autistic women in particular. The film takes place in the 60s in a mental institution for “troubled” young women, so there is plenty of generalized ableism and misogynistic attitudes about women and mental health. There are depictions of forced medication/treatment, restraints, solitary confinement and shock therapy. There are no characters explicitly diagnosed with autism but a few of the characters do have autistic traits.

Susanna attempts suicide at the beginning and another characters dies by suicide towards the end. The actual act isn’t shown but her body is shown after.

Around 1 hr 27 minutes, Lisa taunts a character about how her "safety net" isn't preventing her from wanting to slit her wrists. The character is found hanged and bleeding at 1 hr 32 minutes, which Lisa is rather insensitive.

Daisy is said to struggle with an eating disorder, she regularly compulsively consumes and an entire chicken from her fathers deli, she is found to have multiple rotting carcasses of such hidden under her bed (representing both his visits which are indicative of incest/rape, and the consumption of the chickens themselves).

There are also mentions of laxative abuse and purging on her part:
Lisa: “You’re a laxative junkie...”
Daisy: “I like my dad’s chicken, and when I eat something else, I puke.”

A character mentions a "transvestite in the men's ward," and it's unclear whether this is in referral to a gender-nonconforming man or a trans woman. Either way it's generally considered a derogatory term today.
