One might argue that people preferng to be alone is a symptom of the problem - if the motivation is to avoid stress and frustration.
On the other hand, if being alone is used in a balanced way as a form of self-care in a noisy world that demands so much of us, it can be healthy.
In the end, I would say, it all depends on whether this solitude feels empowering or isolating.
