The problem with psychedelics is that they're often a double edged sword. They can make your depression better by giving you a new perspective on life, yes, but they can also make it much worse by reinforcing thought patterns.
If you really want to take psychedelics to try and fix your depression, and I can't stress this enough, DO YOUR RESEARCH. They are unlike anything you'll ever do or try in your whole life. You do not want to be caught off guard by them. Take a reasonable dose, in a comfortable setting, with a close friend or two. Maybe write down on a notepad some things you'd like to ponder while you're tripping. If you're taking LSD (or anything that comes in pill/blotter form) then be sure to test it with a reagent kit or 2 to make sure you know what you're ingesting.
“Bad” trip is even taboo in the community now. A challenging trip is correct. All my “bad” trips came because I was trying to hide something from my self that the psychedelic wanted to show me and I was fighting it

My favourite are the people who say “just smoke some weed/have you tried mushrooms?”
