After her debacle, she went in to depression.

Debacle means a sudden, disastrous collapse or failure, often complete and overwhelming. In this context, it refers to a significant personal or professional failure that led to depression. Fight and Quarrel suggest conflicts, not failures. Death is too extreme and specific - debacle refers to a catastrophic failure of plans, reputation, or endeavors, not necessarily loss of life. Failure is the correct synonym as it captures the essence of a disastrous outcome.
