What happened in Meerut on Wednesday has left an entire neighborhood shaken. Sarita (38), wife of bank manager Vaibhav, died after consuming poison in their flat at Lotus Tower, Ansal Township. Police say she had been battling deep depression, heartbroken by years of unsuccessful attempts to have a child.
Sarita, originally from Agra’s Awas Vikas Colony, had remarried Vaibhav four years ago. The couple was childless for quite some time and desperately wanted to start a family and had been undergoing IVF treatments for a long time. But each failed attempt pushed Sarita further into emotional distress. According to relatives, she had even stopped taking her prescribed medicines in recent days.
On Wednesday evening, when Vaibhav was at the bank, Sarita was alone at home. At some point, overwhelmed by her pain, she consumed poison. By the time neighbors and Vaibhav rushed her to the hospital, doctors could only declare her dead.
Police officers, including CO Daulatabad Prakash Chand Agarwal, reached the home and found no signs of any dispute between the couple. Prima facie, the incident appears to be the result of unbearable emotional pressure and depression.
Vaibhav, devastated, told the police that Sarita had been under severe stress due to not having children. Her parents have been informed, and the post-mortem report will confirm the exact cause of death. The incident is a heartbreaking reminder of the silent battles people fight behind closed doors — battles that often go unseen until it’s too late.
When a woman goes through infertility, IVF failures, or depression, the emotional weight she carries is often far heavier than what others can see. This is where a man’s care, patience, and understanding can become her biggest source of strength.
❤️ How Men Can Support Their Partner and Reduce Depression
1. Be emotionally present
Sometimes she doesn’t need solutions — she just needs someone who listens without judgment.
Sit with her, hold her hand, and let her speak her fears.
2. Reassure her that she’s enough
Many women blame themselves when treatments fail.
Remind her:
“You are complete. You are not defined by motherhood or biology.”
3. Share the burden, don’t let her feel alone
Attend appointments with her.
Learn about treatments together.
Tell her: “This is our journey, not just yours.”
4. Protect her from social pressure
Take the lead when relatives ask “Good news kab?” or make insensitive remarks.
A man stepping in shields her from much emotional pain.
5. Encourage breaks and rest
IVF, tests, hormones — all of it is a physical and emotional marathon.
Help her rest, take her on small outings, or simply give her a peaceful day at home.
6. Notice early signs of depression
If she is withdrawing, crying often, or losing interest in daily life — gently encourage her to talk to a counselor or doctor.
7. Share responsibilities at home
Household work, cooking, errands — these small gestures make her feel cared for and reduce stress.
8. Remind her that life is bigger than just having a child
Explore hobbies, travel, goals, dreams — help her rediscover joy beyond treatment cycles.
9. Be patient with mood swings
Hormonal injections and repeated disappointments can affect emotions deeply.
Patience becomes love in action.
10. Stand by her, no matter what
Tell her:
“No matter what happens, you and I are a team. I’m with you.”
This assurance alone can cushion her from falling into deep depression. A woman should never feel she is fighting this battle of infertility alone. A loving, supportive man can become her anchor — the person who holds her steady when life feels overwhelming.
