The mother tried to commit suicide twice in two different episodes, once by pills and once by gas, it's not very graphic and she survives both attempts though.

There's verbal abuse between Lionel & Joyce Dahmer in the majority of the flashback scenes involving Jeffrey's childhood/teen years.

Many people are as they try to call the authorities about what happens, or confront Dahmer himself.

Episodes 2 and 3 are really hard to watch if you care about animals, there are multiple graphic things in them as well as some creepy stories. You can skip those when they start and you won't lose anything important to the story (the frog story is slightly important but honestly I would rather not hear it), but you will likely still see parts of them before you skip. Other than these 2 episodes, most of what you'll see in the other episodes is graphic meat images, and inner organs that are "human organs" story wise, but in reality are probably real animal organs that were used while filming (guts, hearts, etc). But it's not much worse than the average horror movie, other than episodes 2 and 3. The series is still worth watching in my opinion, but do be prepared to skip some scenes.

In the first episode someone is being handcuffed but they manage to run. In the 8th or 9th episodes someone is restrained in a nightmare. In the last episode someone has their hand tied before they are killed.

If you count Jeffrey cutting up the bodies as amputation, then yes. In Ep.1 you see a head in the fridge twice, once very briefly (11:21, for barely 2 seconds) and again later in the episode when the officers are explaining what they found to Jeff's father. The entire scene references body parts he kept in the cold storage (41:20-43:00). You see the head as they're taking crime scene photos (as well as human hearts, the vat of acid which clearly has bones, etc.). They describe their findings in detail, so if that's not your jam skip it.

*MILD SPOILER IF YOU DON'T ALREADY KNOW ABOUT THE DAHMER CASE*
The human gore comes in waves. Sometimes it'll be a flashback of a severed limb, or the camera will show Dahmer's collection of polaroid's of his victims. The most prolonged scenes are of the head in the fridge, the hitchhiker (head wound, but you only really see blood in his hair), the guy in the nice hotel (this one was pretty rough), and Dahmer's beat down in the jail and the hospital scene that follows.

John Wayne Gacy (Pogo the Clown) is shown in the last episode, though he is only wearing the clown costume for a few seconds out of it, as he kills someone. For the rest of the episode he is seen with regular clothes.

You do see some scenes from the movie The Exorcist 3 during the first episode, but those are very minor and are only seen for a few seconds with barely any info about what's seen, so I would still count it as "not really".

A lot of scenes with dancing clubs/bars through the whole series, a fair in one episode, sirens from police cars, and some camera flashes. Hard to point to a specific part since it's a lot.

Yes, though I believe the only literal nudes that are seen are during the gay sauna club or whatever that was, where you see some male genitals for a few seconds. The rest is still sexual but you don't see any genitals.
