Season 11 Episode 13 (Should have said No part 2): when Jake asks Clare if they can talk they go to a classroom and there's a snake in a vivarium in there. Be prepared because the scene opens with a close up of it, it is rather difficult to avoid and quite sudden if you don't know about it.

Clear examples (all portrayed as predatory/pedophilic and not romanticised): Connor is groomed by an online ‘girlfriend’ who turns out to be an older adult woman (season 10). KC is also groomed by his basketball coach (season 9). Jane is revealed to have been molested by her father as a little girl in Jane Says (season 8).

in addition to these and to Emma’s abduction mentioned by another user above there are also multiple teacher/student relationships, YMMV on how predatory each is:
- Paige has a relationship with her student teacher, he is college-aged and she is about 16/17 (season 4)
- Sav and Miss Oh have a brief relationship/affair, he is 18 at the time but still her student (season 11)
- Tristan is groomed by Mr Yates (this is the only student/teacher relationship to be fully portrayed as predatory within the show’s narrative, the other two are presented more as doomed romances) (season 13)

A 14-15 year old character commits suicide in an unspecified way and his body is found by another student, but only his reaction is shown. The body isn’t shown. Not super unexpected within the context of the story, considering that the character’s storyline centered around his depression

A character cuts herself. Blood is shown, and depending on the version of the show you're watching, her injuries are shown.

Also, starting in S2E7 of Degrassi Next Class, a character starts to self harm by burning. It's not excessive or graphic but injuries are sometimes shown.

In episode 9 of season 2, a character uses bingeing and purging as a way to lose weight for wrestling. Another character develops anorexia starting in the 15th episode of season 5. In episodes 9 and 10 of season 10, a character takes diet pills to lose weight. In episodes 24 and 25 of season 11, a character is outed to the whole school as being bulimic by her best friend. She binges and starts to purge, but stops. In episodes 25 and 26 of season 12, a character starts engaging in disordered eating to lose weight for his crush.

Very mild, since they are all 12-14. There’s an episode about Jimmy and Ashley deciding whether or not to have sex (they decide against it) and an episode in which JT and Toby watch porn on the family computer while their parents are gone (it is, of course, not shown)
