Your description of the concern is entirely not clear, after evaluation we will know whether it is depression or not. First u need to contact a mental health professional i.e., either a clinical psychologist or psychiatrist. on the surface, for me it looks like your issue needs therapy than medications
Next Steps
Seek evaluation

Feeling low, having crying spells, sleep and appetite disturbances, and difficulty in concentration and attention are some of the signs of Depression. Consult a Psychiatrist for a detailed assessment. It is likely with medication and counselings the symptoms will improve. If you are feeling suicidal or hopeless consult a Psychiatrist immediately.
