Freud, like all philosophers, said some pretty dope stuff and some pretty weird stuff. The mental model he provided us is quite easy to understand and even if we don't have an explicit ego, superego, or id, the subjective ideas those concepts represent can help us with things like acknowledging we have turbulence under the water of our psyche which we can't control most of the time and can direct our willful choices if unprocessed and given power.
