blown tokico strut??

i recently went on a road trip with me and 4 other people in my car, so the back was pretty heavy. most of the time it was fine, but going over bumps or bridges, the car would get pretty low and i could hear the tires rub. after the trip though, ive noticed that my ride seems to be smoother and the car seems to be rolling more in turns (i dont know if this is in my head or what). there are no abnormal sounds coming from the struts, no clanking or rattles, but the right just doesnt feel as stiff as it used to. is it possible to blow struts in this way?

actually, i thought when your ride goes over a bump and the bump feels like your car just slammed into a huge pothole and breaks your back nearly was the symptom of a blown strut

at least thats what happened in my friends car
