Depression
I am feeling very depressed, I tend to cry and some thoughts keep on going in my mind and I always think of those things whether I am alone or I am doing anything and I am not able to concentrate on my studies. This is due to some bad experiences I have faced in my past so whether I should consult a psychiatrist or not??

It sounds like you must have been under a lot of stress with the amount of thoughts that have been constantly running in your mind. Although I want to congratulate and make you aware that opening up and being aware is the most important step and you’ve arrived at it.
Next Steps
Consult with a counsellor. Your hesitation of speaking about what’s bothering you is evident and seeking a positive outlet would help you a lot. Depending on the degree of help required I am sure the counsellor would guide you furthermore.
