20 weeks pregnant and struggling with emotions

I am a 25 yo F and I just hit the 20 week mark for my pregnancy. This will be my first baby. I am overjoyed that I am becoming a mom, but within the last week I have been struggling with depression/anxiety. I have an anxiety disorder/ OCD and have continued my medication during my pregnancy. But the last few weeks I have been feeling super down- wanting to lay in bed all day, I have no desire to leave the house etc. It takes a ton of energy just to convince myself to do things I normally like to do. At the same time I feel completely overwhelmed by all the things I need to do but don't have the motivation to get done. It's honestly a scary feeling. Has anyone else felt like this?
