I don't know if there is some difference in the root, but what I was reading presented catharsis as a fabricated way of eradicating them, but the narrative catharsis as a public cleansing and the catholic confession/psychoanalisis/private narratives/voting a certain party as public acts to temporally reject them.

You can't wish it away, but you can be aware of it and attempt to control your spooks.
