Disconnexia

Disconnexia is the complex brought about by the feeling of uneasiness you get when you do not feel connected to the world. The feeling you get when you forget to bring your cellphone or turn on MSN. This feeling gets more and more powerful as technology progresses towards a breaking of the link between social circles and location.

Could this be related to paranoia? Suppose that an individual has innate tendencies toward paranoia, but feels less paranoid when they feel connected to the world through various forms of technology. Would they feel paranoid when they are disconnected? Would the reverse be true?
