Freud believed that behaviour and personality came from the interaction of conflicting psychological forces that works at three levels of awareness:
- Preconscious. It consists of anything that could potentially be brought into the conscious mind.
- Conscious mind. It contains all the thoughts, memories, feelings, and wishes we are aware of at any given moment.
- Unconscious mind. It is a reservoir of feelings, thoughts, urges, and memories that we are not consciously aware of. In includes unacceptable or unpleasant feelings, such as pain, anxiety, or conflict.
