Basically in a petition for divorce on cruelty grounds, you must have detailed all events you could recall that your wife committed cruelty. May be most of these cruelty mental or physical may not be PROVABLE but the sequence of events can show an over-all cruel mindset.

For evidence you can:

A) Ask the doctor who issued the certificate to include the reasons you told him/her during consultations

B) Bring witnesses who could be your parents or even her relatives if they are willing and neighbors etc

C) You can give evidence yourself detailing all acts of cruelty by your wife to court.

This way, you can succeed in your case.

Mere separation of more than 1 year will not entitle you for divorce unless it is with the intent on spouses' part to live separately.

in case you can prove that the depression was the direct outcome her cruel behaviour and her behaviour was of such a nature that living with her was almost impossible. in case you can relate the incident of cruelty with your depression. you mayl win the case.

I agree with the above opinion.
