    Freud believed that the unconscious mind, which lies beneath conscious awareness, contains disturbing thoughts and impulses related to sexuality and aggression that should remain repressed. He theorized that the unconscious contains instincts and desires that are walled off from conscious thought, and that it influences behavior and psychological functioning in unseen ways. Freud saw the unconscious as a repository for socially unacceptable ideas, wishes, or desires - especially those relating to sexual impulses and childhood development.

    Objective 21

    Summarize Freuds conception of the unconscious.

    Freud thought that unconscious mind was just he tip of an iceberg. Freud thought that
    the unconscious mind was full of significant and disturbing things that should only stay
    in the unconscious mind and never be our real thoughts. The sub conscious level is a
    level of consciousness that contains thoughts that can come into our conscious. Freud
    also thought that unconscious mind contained lots of sexual and bad thoughts. That is
    another reason why he theorize that our unconscious thoughts should remain in the
    unconscious level.
