ID is our pleasure principle and the selfish desires of an individual. The superego is the social component to our thinking and is what society has taught us or other external influences such as religion and parents. There can be anxiety in violating the superego and so The ego is the median between the two, behaving in a way where we stay within the limits of our superego but still satisfy our ID.
