My friend,
Since none of us have the benefit of knowing the context in which this was said, frankly, you probably know best what the implications are of what it means.
The fact that you ask what a simple, very evident phrase means tells me that you....don't want it to mean what it does.
Most people who say this in the context of a relationship have reached a point of extreme frustrations, tiredness, or anger.
Perhaps what you really want to know is how to approach the person who has said this to you?
Here are the steps:
1. Give the person some time where you do not contact them....2 weeks is a good amt. of time.
2. During that time, review what is important to you about the relationships, about the person, and what do you need to say.
3. After you have waited 2 weeks, formally ask the person if you can talk to him/her in person.
4. Even if you do not feel that you have done anything wrong, it's always good to start out with..."First let me say with sincerity that I am sorry if anything that I did or did not do upset you or hurt you." Then pause and allow the other person to just digest that . (Make eye contact).
5. After you say this, rather than put yourself and what you want to say first, next, ask the person if there is anything that they need to say to you? If yes, then listen, If no, he/she is still quite mad, or resigned.
6. In as few words as possible say what you need to, and then
Thank the person for listening. Ask her/him to think it over....please. And take your leave.
Good luck,
Peace!

On a serious note, some people use this phrase when they want to end it all. is this person a harm to self or others ? Or some use these wds to say a relationship or time span is over. What do you think ? If you think the former, do not leave person alone. Call local suicide hotline or seek professional care.

It really depends on how they say it I guess. But to me it means that whatever they were doing is finished.

Yep, they are definitely tired of something. Could be you, could be the convo (which is usually an argument), or whatever is going on that they are engaged in.

I've finished with whatever I was doing. It depends on the situation, I guess.

It means they are so fed up with whomever or whatever they are referring to.
They mean they are done and have washed their hands of it.

its also slang for being too tired to attempt to do anything more than what already has been done.
