There is one problem with your restatement. Breathing, even non-stop hyperventilation, does not interfere much with other activities, so it's hard to imagine how it could stunt social growth. Aside from that, it is of course true: everyone is in some sense "addicted" to breathing, though it might be more accurate to say that air is an essential nutrient.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding this, but you are saying a person would die without the internet?
Like I said, I mean this in the best way possible, but you probably have an air addiction that is stunting your social growth. You might want to try something like take 1 month and never breathe. Stop breathing for a month just to find out. And if what I just said about going without air at home for a month sounds impossible, then that's probably the proof you have an addiction.
