Do you talk to your drugs?

So I was listening to Terrence Mckenna where he was talking about how to effectively handle mushroom trips and one piece of advice he gave was to try talking to the mushrooms when you begin to feel their effects. If they're making you feel uneasy, ask them to lay off. If they're making you feel paranoid, ask them to take it easy on you. You get the drift.
I tried this recently and it's ridiculous how effective it turned out to be. After consuming a heroic dose, my body was shivering despite it being fairly warm. I simply asked the mushrooms to stop in my head and poof, the shivering just went away.
I feel like psychedelics are closer to our innermost thoughts and souls than any human being, including ourselves, could ever be. They allow us to access parts of our memories and thoughts that are secluded and hidden in guilt, shame, fear, and found in the deepest, darkest territories of our mind. They're truly beautiful. I feel like when you consume the mushroom, it becomes an integral part of your being for that brief period of time. Since you become the mushroom, you begin to have some control over the trip. I've actually tried changing my visuals before and seeing what I imagined and it worked to some degree.

Interesting... I'll try this next time I trip if I feel uncomfortable at any point (which doesn't usually happen haha).

No I dont.... unfortunately I'm either there enough to not need to talk to my drugs, or so gone I don't know who "I" am what drugs are or why my reality is so insanely fucked up atm. Really wanted to try this for quiet sometime as I have heard a similar or perhaps the same Mckenna video but never had the chance thus far.

I sometimes bless my mushrooms/acid before I partake. Especially DMT. If anything, it puts me in a positive head space.

I think the whole talking to your mushrooms after you've ingested them, asking them to tone it down a notch is kinda more of a mental thing you can do to calm yourself.
All I know is that when I ate some the last time I tripped I spent like 4 hours in my bed wishing I hadn't and would have choose tea instead. Maybe I should have asked them to stop smashing the inside of my stomach, could have helped maybe, maybe not

It was honestly horrible, I kept seeing weird imagery in my head like peoples faces with bloody mouths and stuff; I was like "this trip sucks man",

I've never spoken to my drugs nor do I think I ever plan to. I don't know maybe one day when I'm senile I'll talk to them about stuff.
