👉 Overdestitution is a phrase used in Latin and Greek to describe someone who has become destitute or impoverished. It implies that they have lost all means of support, including food, shelter, clothing, and other necessities. The term was originally applied to individuals who were unable to pay their debts or manage their finances effectively, but it has since been expanded to include people who are in a state of physical and mental distress due to financial problems.
