Freud claimed these components of the human psyche controlled all processes of personality, behaviors, and traits in a person. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The Id was a person's most basic and impulsive instincts--the ones that feed into our deepest desires and physical needs. The Super-Ego was the opposite of the id. This component controlled our highest morals and standards, operating through our conscience and making us desire to be our most ideal-selves.
