It isn't necessarily portrayed as abuse, but Bela Lugosi was an alcoholic and in addition to being a morphine addict and he does drink in the movie although it is not presented as problematic.

Ed wears dentures, having lost his front teeth in World War 2. He removes them in one scene to scare some kids.

There is a transgender character who is not able to get gender confirmation surgery. It is not a major plot point.

it is attempted, and implied that a suicidal character later passes, however it is unclear as to whether it was from suicide or not.

Lots of slurs thrown around and lots of hatred and anger from characters towards Trans people and guys in drag.

Ed likes to dress up in angora sweaters to comfort himself. This isn’t presented in a mocking way but some of the other characters find it odd or are rude about it

In the closing epilogs for the characters, the epilog for Bunny, who was a trans woman who was never able to get her gender confirmation surgery, is referred to as a "he" twice and is mocked for not having been able to get the surgery.

a character's partner is briefly mentioned having died off-screen. side note: there is some homophobic language used, generally as a joke or a reference to the time period, all of the main characters seem to be very accepting of it however.

Quite a few instances of characters asking Trans/drag characters what's "wrong" with them, yelling at then, being generally angry/hateful towards them etc

I dont believe any characters explicitly have s*x on screen, however there is a fair amount of references to it. also side note: there are a large quantity of F-words and other swears, including slight homophobic slurs.

Just the sound effects of this happening in a film, while we focus on the audience. In a previous scene a character jumps on a cab to stop it but it is already slowing down.
