The purpose of this paper is to show that the difficulties and dilemmas Freud faced in his reflection on the theme of conscience in the "Project for a scientific psychology", 1895, far from being simply an obstacle to the development of a scientific theory of mental functioning or to the naturalization of the psyche, they constitute a positive condition for the hypothesis of the unconscious. Taking into account that, while arising precisely from Freud’s persistence in pursuing a physics of mental processes, psychophysics, these difficulties and dilemmas triggered the creation of a new theoretical model aiming at thinking the psyche and, in this sense, measuring the content of novelty put underway by Freud's program of a scientific psychology. Therefore, we shall see that the discovery of the unconscious is intimately linked to Freud's scientific aspirations, from which the Project provides incomparable testimony
