I've seen previous Kudoz questions on the same word but none of them seemed to fit this particular usage.

pushed, depressed


Explanation:
Are you looking for "fully pushed", "fully depressed" or to "its limit". I saw several explanations in a dictionary called www.worldreference.com (with explanatory examples). Maybe you care to see if one of the explanations there is better than the ones I offered?
