Vernon and Petunia Dursley are not only abusive parents but also abusive towards their nephew. Tobias (and possibly?) Eileen Snape are abusive towards their child.

Snape, an abusive teacher, is forgiven by Harry and possibly other characters. Hermione beats Ron after his period of absence and he forgives her and later even marries her.

The way Snape talks about his father and the presentation of said character two books earlier certainly leads us to believe he was abusive, and Snape’s just awful to Harry, Neville, Hermione, and others throughout the entire series.

Voldemort’s snake (Nagini) appears in several scenes throughout two deathly hallows movies. She is killed by Neville in the last film.

There's some innuendo when a female character is attacked by a werewolf. They are described as "wrestling," and he makes some extremely creepy comments.

There's a scene where a woman's body is stuffed with a snake and then the snake comes out, it's very chaotic so it doesn't always immediately register with the reader what is happening and is relatively quick but probably one of the most distributing instances in the series

Be careful around Chapter 32. Not too graphic but definitely disturbing character unaliving.

Not exactly, but Harry develops an odd relationship with his scar pains. He doesn't have any control over them, but he begins to look forward to them and ascribe importance to them. Other characters express worry about his mental health.

Not directly, but a character wishes death for themself, a character asks (even pleads) to be unalived, and a character must lead themself to suicide. All in the same chapter.

No but a character does do something with the intention of dying but his goal is not suicide it's to save other people.

There are no trans characters in the novel. However, there is one scene where two female characters are in male bodies due to the use of a magical potion to disguise their identity. They are still referred to, correctly, with female pronouns, which is ironic given the author's later views on gender.

Many people argue that a side character was in a homosexual relationship with another. They both die; one in this book, one in the other. OS though.
