Moderate: Ableism, Confinement, Infidelity, Sexism, Suicidal thoughts, Medical content, and Grief
Minor: Addiction, Body horror, Panic attacks/disorders, Self harm, Terminal illness, and Death of parent
The addiction I perceive in this book is so nontraditional, even magical, that I didn't give it more than a "minor" designation, but to me, the theme of addiction is pervasive. The disordered eating in this book is similarly magical, but because the book is centered around food and eating and the protagonist's struggle with these things, I marked it as 'graphic.'
