The word Copium comes from the word “cope” which means (of a person) deal effectively with something. It’s mostly used when a person offends another. Or when an outcome you didn’t want to happen, happens. And even when someone is in your head “rent free”. It’s generally used in the political streaming communities. And 4chan.
