No, but several characters grew up in an abusive orphanage, which is mentioned a couple of times.

The main character sometimes uses alcohol to help manage his Tourette's syndrome. On one occasion he gets extremely drunk. We also see someone downing a shot of liquor to help with the pain of an injury.

A sexual assault from years earlier is mentioned in conversation. It's described from the point of view of the rapist, who sees nothing wrong with it, which may make it more upsetting for some viewers. (The film clearly does not condone his actions and another character points out that it was sexual assault.)

The main character was orphaned as a young boy (mentioned but not shown). Near the start of the movie, he experiences the death of a man who was a father-figure for him. Another character also loses a beloved father.

A character is rushed to the hospital with a bullet wound, and we see a doctor preparing a needle to inject him with something in the attempt to save his life. I don't think there was a close-up of the injection being given.

The protagonist has Tourette syndrome, which many people comment on, often in derogatory ways. The film doesn't treat this as a joke but as the human rights violation that it is.

No, but there is a drowning scene in a character's imagination.
