Smoking cigarettes from cigarette companies is terribly addictive because they add a bunch of stuff that's more addictive than tobacco alone.
And studies show that at this low dose of 5 or 10 milligrams a day, the washout period of addiction is the same as coffee.
It's three days.
But if you're using more than that five milligrams on a regular basis, it starts to become physiologically addictive.
