What the ‘these narratives’ stands for?

The passage below is from Fathoms: The World in the Whale Hardcover by Rebecca Giggs.

The idea that the unconscious can be envisaged as a sea has its own history. It owes its existence to narratives about what the ocean represents in the western tradition and the twentieth century, narratives addressing how human mentality functions, and whether or not an individual’s sense of self, separate from their community, is even interesting to plumb (or decorous to expose). It is a trope composed in art, worship, literature. How does a space as boundless and ungraspable as ‘the sea’ come to seem personal and intimate? It took a long time before I came to realise that the processes by which the sea was turned into a metaphor for a person’s unconscious were neither natural nor private. I belong to these narratives—maybe you do, too. I pickup whatever thing a dream washes onto my shoreline and turn it over to look, hoping for the shimmery incandescence of pearlshell, and fearing instead the exposure of a writhing, unspeakable underside; an impulse unmentionable.

In the passage above what ‘these narratives’ stands for?

Does it refer to the author’s realization ‘that processes... were neither natural nor private’? (Am I right?)

Since she’s in that side of narratives, does she fear that what she picks up in her dream would expose her impulse unmentionable? (Am I right?)

Thanks in advance.
