I would imagine any belief of efficacy is placebo. Now a heroic dose, that's where the real change can happen.

Dr. Andrew Huberman's podcast reviews the available literature here (in the section marked Psychedelics, after 1:34 or go to 1:37 for discussion of a specific study that's also linked on the page): https://www.hubermanlab.com/episode/understanding-and-conquering-depression

From what I've heard recent years, you don't get to just (micro)dose up and see what happens. Guidance is needed for there to be actual healing potential. Those of us who have no such trained or even sympathetic person around to help would be taking a big risk. Even having an untrained friend around, you'd just be taking a holiday from your depression and not really treating it.
