How Can Depression During Pregnancy Be Treated?

Hi, m 6 week 2 days pregnant & feeling very depressed all the time, only negative thots all time. I feel this is affecting my baby health so I want to abort it. I am on dupuston, pregcret 200 since positive pregnancy. Also on HCG injection every week. I had 2 miscarriages earlier a year each. This was unexpected pregnancy but instead of being happy I am feeling very depressed, always feels like to be aborted. Trying very much to be positive but still not able to. So if I stop dupuston, pregcret/ sustain tablets will this start my periods back. Plz help me plz...
