Where it comes from
Blend of cope (“delusion, coping mechanism”) + opium. First cited usage points back to the album entitled Copium released by American rapper Keak da Sneak in 2003. The term was popularized in 2020 by a reaction image of Pepe the Frog hooked up to a gas cylinder labeled "copium". Sometimes reanalyzed as cope + -ium.
