Broken means that a person is in a very deep depression, possibility of suicide and little ambition to live. Generally a person can go into that state after a physical or psychological trauma. This is often reversible through medication, support and therapy.
Hitting rock bottom is in some ways similar to being broken. Often it happens with drug addicts and others who have lost or alienated their families and friends, lose their homes, if addictedsufferingg from withdrawal pain, and is at the worst point in their lives. Usually with therapy and medication they can heal.
Such states are usually a combination of emotional , genetic ,, psychological,physical and/or physical

Broken means like...they are depressed or sad. Emotionally depressed, heartbroken.
Hit rock bottoms refers to as a phrase when something in your life has taken a toll. It means that you have fallen so low...not literally falling, but figuratively speaking.
