Its pretty common for people with depression to have memory problems. You probably wont find any answers through bloodwork.
Id suggest keeping a journal. Even if you dont write very much, some bullet points or a sentence or two about your day will help you keep track of your life. Also make sure to get a decent sleep every night. Sleep is when your brain kind of reorganizes itself and makes sense of what happened during the day, and if you arent sleeping well, the processes involved in memory formation and retention are affected.
The long-term fix though is treating your depression. Its good that youre trying to get help from your doctors. Sorry they arent really hearing you. Keep trying - its worth it, and you will feel better one day once youre finally able to connect with the right people and treatments. Look up psychiatrists and psychologists in your area, phone a few, and ask their offices directly about getting an appointment if your primary care doctor isnt taking initiative to refer you to anyone. If youre already seeing someone for your mental health and youre not seeing improvement, switch doctors. Switch medicines. Try a different type of therapy. You can overcome this eventually.
