dissipated
Scattered and gone
Dissipated describes someone given to excessive indulgence in pleasure—drinking, partying, sexual excess.
A dissipated lifestyle suggests moral decay through self-indulgence.
A dissipated appearance shows the physical toll: bloodshot eyes, unhealthy pallor.
The word carries judgment, implying someone has squandered health, money, or potential through dissolute living.
