Palliate is just another word for alleviating ones' problems by getting high. Which is a fallacy to the max, it actually adds to ones overall problems.

Call it what you will, it is still a drug that saps a persons motivations and can cause irreparable harm physically and mentally.

Oh really? Is THAT what PALLIATE means? ROTHFLMIAO! (ROLLING ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING MY IRISH ASS OFF) Well, for your information, stupid, I set a trap and you fell into it. According to the 19th TABERS CYCLOPEDIC MEDICAL DICTIONARY, page 1493, "palliate" is: "To ease or reduce effect or intensity, esp. of a disease; to allay temporarily, as pain; without curing."

I deliberately used the term palliative which is, in the same edition: "1. Relieving or alleviating without curing. 2. An agent that alleviates or eases a painful or uncomfortable condition."

You sir, may crawl back under the rock under which you dared poke your tick infested head.
