Can Medicine Cure Depression?

I take medication for depression. When I told a psycologist that my family says I forget a lot of stuff, she said it was a symptom of the depression. My question is, will more medication help me to not forget so much stuff? It is affecting my job and my home life.

In depression, serotonin is deficit as per few theory, so medication will be beneficial

Behavioural counselling also helpful in depression
