I do not see much use of my own unconscious. I feel that I get more out of learning from being conscious and knowing what is really there than what is in just my head. Although my unconsiousness may be entertaining at times and may provide me with ideas, I do not think that it is useful. I believe something is useful when it brings about progress and change and I do not think I can do that with my unconscious. Although, this may be possible I guess if it was in myhead, but not in reality.

Going off of that thought then, what is reality? Can we distinguish between what is real and what is fake? Can we say that consciousness is real and unconsciousness is fake? Can it be the opposite? Those with schizophrenia  have a different perception from most and have an "altered reality". It seems that at times, their unconsciousness is their reality. Perhaps, for them, the unconsciousness is useful since it is real. I do not think unconsiousness is useful because I do not believe it is real. For me, it is something intangible.
