Recently within the last week or so i've been contemplating if I might also have Pure-OCD. This is because i've had obsessive intrusive thoughts (mostly sexual or self-mutilation) since ages as early as 6-7. I'm leaning towards Pure-O because, as far as I know, BPD symptoms don't effect you in the earlier stages of your life since that's when it's being developed. But i'm worrying because my obsessive intrusive thoughts, despite being persistent, have never done more than just making me overwhelmingly uncomfortable. I don't remember having any meltdowns because of them in particular, I just accepted them as something i'd have to live with. Is that possible in Pure-O? To have a "mild" experience with it? For the thoughts to be there, uncomfortable and repulsive as ever, but never cause any direct breakdowns or self destructive behavior? Could this just somehow be linked to my BPD?

I'm not totally sure if this belongs in the BPD subreddit, but since it includes questions for other pwBPD as well, I'll post it here.
