overtires
Pushes too hard
Overtires is the third-person singular form of overtire, meaning to exhaust or fatigue excessively.
Something that overtires you pushes past ordinary tiredness into depletion: The long commute overtires her before the workday even begins.
The word appears more often in its participial forms—overtired children are notoriously difficult.
