Offscreen. Dr. Frome works with a young patient who is afraid to move back to Missouri with his mother, where they lived when he was younger. It is revealed that the boy was sexually abused by his babysitter and aunt, and doesn't want to go back to Missouri because he's scared of having to see her again.

Yes, a key part of this episode is an incident in which a young boy comes into the ER after having been choked - his family claims it was accidental due to the child getting tangled in window blind cords, but their stories don't match the facts and it is revealed that the boy's twelve-year-old sister intentionally choked him because he wouldn't let her use his phone.

No, but there is one scene where a character confronts her mom about her extremely rough childhood, only for the mom to deny it and claim to have no memory of any of it. A scene after that, someone else says that that was gaslighting behavior.
It's unclear (to me at least) whether the mom actually didn't remember or if she intentionally lied about it, but it can still be a trigger for someone.

Season 1: Episode 1 first 10 minutes there is a quick cut to someone being sick graphically. Episode 12 he is sick from chemo in a bathroom stall. Episode 13 very beginning brief shot of someone gagging into bucket when bloom walks into the room and looks around. Episode 16 a girl in rehab ODs and bloom turns her onto her side and she gets sick.
Season 2: episode 1 ten mins in, extremely graphic sudden scene. There is conversion about a sick kid around that time to prepare you but the scene cuts quickly and is frontal. Prepare when he's on the phone with his husband.
Season 4, ep 22: at about 17 mins in, in stairwell when people start passing out. Two other incidents in earlier episodes but forgot to mark.

Yes. This occurs multiple times. In season 1 (can't remember the episode sorry), Jemma gets angry and destroys a project she's worked on because she's upset about past trauma and ways her life is changing.
In S2E5 a girl chokes her brother and it is revealed that she has a mental health condition (referred to at times as 'psychopathy' or 'callous unemotional') where she doesn't feel empathy, and her violence is blamed on this condition. She is shown as being manipulative, not caring about other people, and being willing to hurt others to get what she wants, even over minor things like wanting to play with her brother's phone.

Depictions of mental illness and particularly people with low/no empathy (S2E5) can be negative. It's clear that the writers were trying to handle it with compassion but it definitely reinforces harmful stereotypes about low/no empathy people doing bad, harmful things because of their lack of empathy.
