∙ 13y agoSigmund Freud (1856-1939) was a big believer in the unconscious mind ruling and affecting our actions.
Freud was awarded a fellowship to study with Jean Charcot (a famous french Neurologist) treating patients with conversion hysteria (physical symptoms such as paralysis and blindness appearing suddenly and with no apparent physical cause). It was this work that convinced Freud that their symptoms were connected with painful memories and feelings that seemed to have been repressed without awareness developing one of his theories of psychoanalysis.
Freud then believed that the unconscious part of our minds greatly influenced our behaviour. Id is thought to exist in our unconscious minds as the inner most core of the personality. Id has no direct contact with reality and functions in a totally irrational manner operating according to the pleasure principle which seeks immediate gratification or release. The ego functioning on the reality principle is present in the conscious level. Ego decides when and under what conditions id can safely discharge its impulses and needs delaying gratification. Finally the superego acting as a moral arm practices self control and strives to control sexual and aggressive impulses existing in id. The struggle between these structures of personality causes anxiety.
