So true, but life is a combination of both and a constant struggle to supress the ego without putting your self in a situation where you get walked over by anybody and everybody. Sometimes the Ego needs to re-asert it'self to keep you sane.
If we are going down the road of Freudian Psychology, I would say it is the Id that is more dangerous to us alkies.
Keep well Wendy, and stay strong.
Best wishes.
Chris.
