No, of course not.
I'm far from a specialist, but I would say that the 'addiction' definition has nothing to do with the ability to grow out of it on your own.
Addiction is a compulsive behavior that the individual does despite having the knowledge that is harmful for itself.
If you managed to get out of it (on your own or not) you are not an addicted person anymore. But that doesn't mean that it wasn't an addiction.
