AFAIK depression is associated with impaired memory [0][1], and sufferers tend to remember more negative experiences [2].
Also, memories are in effect changed by recall [3][4].
This combined with the cognitive distortions [5] linked to depression would seem to suggest even worse performance with regard to memory (i.e. looking for and finding fault that may not have been present, etc.)
BTW, "natural" is not really a useful distinction regarding this issue [6].
