I asked into it

[Topstudent]

I wrote this:

"After that, we got to talking. She told me that she was under treatment for depression. I asked into it, and then she just completely broke down."

Is 'asked into it' correct/natural here? If not, what else would be natural?

I asked her about it.

"After that, we got to talking.

The underlined is wrong. Say: "We got talking" or "We got to talk".

She told me that she was under undergoing/having treatment for depression.

See above.

I asked into it, and then she just completely broke down."

See Rover's correction above for that one.

If you want to use "into", you need to say something like "I delved deeper into it and ...".

"Got to talking" is commonly used in the US. It's a expression I use quite often. In fact, the 'got to X-ing' pattern works with most verbs as far as that goes.

I asked into it, and then she just completely broke down."

Again, it works fine for me, although some of the other suggestions of course work just as well.
