- ego- (mediates between id and the external world) (balance between id wants and what reality allows)

Freud also divided the mind into three levels of awareness. (Explain)
conscious, preconscious and unconscious mind.
- Conscious mind (Current thoughts, feeling and awareness) (your present mental focus) (This is what you’re thinking or feeling right now.)
- Preconscious mind (Info below awareness but easily accessed.) (Memories just under the surface) (This is information that you’re not thinking about at the moment, but you can easily remember.)
- Unconscious mind (Hidden thought, emotions, memories) (shapes behavior, often from repressed issues) (This part holds hidden thoughts and feelings that you are not aware of.)
