Self-harm and mental health
The series highlights different types of mental health struggles.
Struggling with anxiety, a character uses a lighter to burn her thigh. Later in the episode, she suffers from a panic attack, struggling to breathe, but ends up confiding in her father about the self-harm. She later gets into a boiling hot bath. The character attends a therapy session and talks about how she has been burning herself since she was 12 years old. This may be upsetting for viewers who have struggled or know someone who has struggled with anxiety and self-harmed.
Another character suffers from depression and teachers suggest that a child has anxiety.
Violence
There are flashbacks of verbal and physical abuse towards a woman. A character smothers another with a pillow and someone is shot off-screen. Injuries and altercations aren’t shown in the detail. Flash backs are also brief.
Sexual themes
Teenagers engage in sexual activities. Nothing is shown in detail, but heavy breathing and suggestive movement makes it clear what is happening.
Offensive language
