Non-Stop (1958) by Brian Aldiss

"The teaching warned him that his mind was a foul place. The holy trinity, Freud, Yung, and Bassit, had gone alone through the terrible barriers of sleep, death's brother; there they found - not nothing, as man had formerly believed - but grottoes and subterranean labyrinths full of ghouls and evil treasure, leeches, and the lusts that burn like acid. Man stood revealed to himself: a creature of infinite complexity and horror."

...too scathing for a Tuesday morning?
