Equivalence of norms: $\|x\|$ and $\|x\|_1=\|x\|+\lvert\,f(x)\rvert$ Let $f: X\to \mathbb{R}$ be a linear functional and $\|\cdot\|_1$ is defined as follow $\|x\|_1=\|x\|+|f(x)|$. Prove or disprove $\|\cdot\|_1$ is equivalent to $\|\cdot\|$ iff $f$ is continuous.
I've tested some examples and get the answer is positive. 

Hint. It suffices to prove the following:
$$
\|x_n-x\|\to 0 \quad\text{iff}\quad \|x_n-x\|_1\to 0.
$$
