Multiple characters have really abusive parents, but the abuse is mostly in the past and off-screen. The abusers are never glorified, and the CO is one of the best representations of a healthy father figure I've ever seen.

As in the blood warning, there are instances of the Klingons ritually wound their palms during the show. There are also scenes where the characters perform makeshift blood tests to prove that they are not changelings. ("In Purgatory's Shadow" is one example. Will edit when possible to include more if needed.)

Mostly discussed in dialog, but one episode ("The Ascent") shows one character's leg bent at an unnatural angle, clearly broken after tumbling down a mountain.
There are a few episodes ("Body Parts", "In Purgatory's Shadow"/"By Inferno's Light", and "Strange Bedfellows") in which a character's neck is twisted with an audible crack of a bone snapping.

There are multiple episodes with torture.
In season 2, episode 2, a main character is kidnapped and beaten for information. The scene isn't extended although blood is shown, as well as a scene where the character is healed using sci-fi methods.
In season 2, episode 15, a main character is tortured through the use of exposure to extreme heat and being trapped in a small metal box.
In season 3, episode 21, torture forms a major part of the episode. The torturer is portrayed sympathetically (but not in an uncomplicated way, the episode is very focused on twisty morals).

in season 2 episode 22 "The Wire", Garak is shown taking pain medication via hypospray and it's shown through dialog that it's a huge overdose. he suffers no ill effects as a result of this, but throughout the episode he's unwell for other reasons.
in season 6 episode 22 "Valiant", a character is shown swallowing stimulant pills repeatedly in a short timespan, but doesn't experience an acute or life-threatening overdose.

In the episode "Shadows and Symbols", a character is implied to have gotten space sick, but there is no sound or visual. Nothing is shown on screen other than the implication.
In the same episode, the same character gags while trying a drink that tastes horrible to her, but she does not get sick. As someone with emetophobia, it bothers me when I see it, but you may have different sensitivities than I do! Take care.
In another episode, a character runs off (implied to be nauseous/getting sick) but no sound or visual is shown. Cannot remember the episode, sorry!

In a sense. A ferengi woman is presenting and identifying as a ferengi man in order to have freedom. It is revealed to people throughout the episode that she is not in fact a ferengi man, but a ferengi woman in disguise. There are emotional outbursts following each reveal that resemble what one might see when someone is outed.

No, but there is an attempted/interrupted Klingon suicide ritual. In another episode, someone takes poison to "cut the cord" and save another person's life by ending his own in that particular future timeline. It's a very emotional episode (don't remember the season, but it's called "The Visitor").

In season 2, episode 15, a character is tortured by being forced into an enclosed metal box in the heat. I don't think there's any scenes from the perspective of being in the box - I'm pretty sure it's more of a cut to him being temporarily released.
In season 5, episode 15, a character who is canonically claustrophobic has to perform an important technical job in an enclosed, dark space.
In season 7, episode 3, a character's claustrophobia is a major plot point. I don't think there's any scenes where the set itself is claustrophobic but the subject of space/claustrophobia is brought up verbally very frequently. Includes the character having a panic attack trying to leave a space station via airlock because the station itself now feels claustrophobic.

No, however there is a plotline where a fetus is transferred from a pregnant woman to another woman because of potential risk to the child after a shuttle accident. The plotline kicks off in season 4, ep 25.

In 5x11 "The Darkness and the Light", a character attempts to perform an abortion non-consensually on another character. He does not go through with it, but it could still be upsetting.

The Ferengi were very antisemitic in TNG, but are fixed by DS9. This is due to a change in producers; Gene Roddenberry was antisemitic, but he passed away two years before DS9 aired. Berman has his issues, but antisemitism doesn't seem to be one of them. The Ferengi are reframed from "inherently greedy" to "trapped in an oppressive, capitalist system" and honestly I love every single major Ferengi character.

Skip Profit and Lace if this bothers you. Actually skip it anyway, it's both a problematic and a badly-written episode even disregarding this issue.

There is a symbiont character that used to have a male host body but is now in a female host body. The people who know the character before sometimes call her 'Old Man' in an affectionate way. The symbiont character is not bothered by this.

BIG SPOILERS
While they don't explicitly use the terms we would to describe it, one of the series' main characters is gender-fluid and pansexual, and this character dies.

Not necessarily, since the disabled person is a fictional alien from a fictional planet. This character uses a wheelchair and struggles with their independence, though.

Mirror universe episodes, especially 4x20 "Shattered Mirror", are notoriously horny. Also, characters will frequently reference sex or sexual actions, and there are a few non-explicit sex scenes - usually showing the before or after.

"Past Tense", season 3 episodes 11+12, depicts and discusses poor & homeless people at length. "The Quickening", season 4 episode 24, revolves around a plague-ridden planet of poor people, many of whom appear to be homeless. "Sanctuary", season 2 episode 10, is about an alien species who had to flee their homeworld and are now refugees searching for a new planet to live on.

The ending of the series can be considered very bittersweet, at worst. Some episodes may have a sad ending to them.

The show is set in the 24th century, so there aren't many cars. There are shuttle crashes though.

They are not planes, but there are instances of space ships crashing onto a planet, two of which are displayed in "Rocks and Shoals" and "The Ascent".
