I just watched for the first time and didn’t catch any spiders at all, so not sure why so many people said yes.

The narrator's Tyler's relationship could in my opinion be described as an abusive relationship. They're not technically dating but even the narrator himself compares them to a married couple. They often fight (at the Fight Club), Tyler burns the narrator in one scene, and there is a scene where the narrator is in the hospital after a fight (with Tyler I'm assuming) and Tyler tells him to tell the doctor that he fell down the stairs which really remunds me of someone lying after being beaten by their partner.

Addictions and unhealthy habits are a major thing in this movie. No drug addictions, though.

no but near the end (in the police interrogation room) the main character is held down and has his pants pulled off (they are trying to castrate him, NOT rape him.)

No but towards the end of the film the main character is held down by his legs and has his trousers forcibly removed. This isn’t a sexual thing but it did trigger me.

While the protagonist washes his teeth, he reaches into his mouth and pulls out a tooth that was already falling off. Also, the blond guy looses several teeth when the protagonist punches him repeatedly in the head during a fight.

In a very specific sense there's a strange love triangle between the Narrator, Tyler, and Marla.

It may be brief, but it's still extremely graphic and should be skipped if you have emetophobia. It's when Brad Pitt is shaking his bloody face all over the owner of the club. When he is doing this, and yelling "You don't know where I've been!" Skip forward until the owner and his goons leave the basement.

No, but the acts of terrorism committed by Project Mayhem and the scenes of high-rise buildings crumbling in a similar manner to the WTC may be triggering for people affected by this

In a way, the whole plot revolves around the idea of getting hurt as a way of catharsis, and specially with the plot twist it's very explicit the main characters is violet thowards himself.

Only in some moments. Otherwise it is very steady. It was directed by David Fincher who is famous for his almost hauntingly steady shots :)

The narrator obviously narrates the whole movie, but one part that almost creeped me put was when in the end of the movie Tyler specifically mentioned flashback from the beginning of the movie, calling it a flashback.

I think this question is somewhat up to debate. THIS CONTAINS A MAJOR SPOILER FOR THE END OF THE FILM:
This movie engages (arguably) in the trope of a character with a severe mental illness being violent and unpredictable, specifically dissociative identity disorder. D.I.D. is used in more of a metaphorical fashion rather than as a response to trauma from a character, if you have D.I.D. you may find this film upsetting for its depiction.

(spoilers) a male character with several female characteristics dies, but the film does not make references/jokes about being transgender or intersex.
however, a transgender or intersex person may feel uncomfortable with his portrayal.

Not exactly slurs but there is a scene where two characters make light jokes about a guy in a calvin klein advertisement which could be taken as a homophobic joke.

This movie is a satire of the whole "alpha male" toxic masculinity ideology, but it's often misinterpreted as a glorification of toxic masculinity.
