Psychodynamic approach
A
Id: Impulsive, pleasure-seeking part of our personality. It wants instant gratification and doesn’t care about the rules or consequences.
Ego: Rational, decision-making part. It tries to balance the desires of the Id with the reality of the situation, making choices that work in the long run.
Super-ego: The moral compass. It represents our internalised sense of right and wrong, and it can make us feel guilty when we go against our moral values.
