Content Warnings

Graphic: Emotional abuse, Panic attacks/disorders, Toxic relationship, and Grief

Moderate: Bullying, Child abuse, Cursing, Infidelity, Mental illness, Death of parent, and Gaslighting

Minor: Racism, Xenophobia, and War

The first half was triggering with the inter generational trauma and emotional abuse, while the latter third was uproariously funny. Stark contrast, but works out. A trigger warning would be helpful.
