The Ego is an individual’s self-awareness or consciousness. This conscious acceptance is mainly based on the individual’s environment from birth onward and is responsible for modifying primarily disorganized anti-social instincts or behavioral dispositions, impulses and compulsions. The Ego is organized and deals with the life analysis of the individual in an organized, realistic manner. This is accomplished in coordination with the Super-Ego which controls the Id (the set of uncoordinated instinctual trends) based in the subconscious. The healthy Super-Ego stops you from doing certain things your Id may want you to do.
