Yes is is, But it also depends on the person.
Are you experienced? If not then It would be adviseable to have some one either come over or at the very least be able to call you.
Do you have some things around you that would entertain you? Like animated movies or a place to go outside?
All depends, But Its usualy fun to trip alone that way you can let all of your feelings come out on things you see or do, without some one there.

I think one can have a stronger more personal trip while alone; however, I enjoy trippin with people that are also trippin the best. I hate trippin at a party or something, feels like everyone is staring at you and hate you. thats just me though

I preffer tripping alone. While tripping I generally come to realize that none of these people have anything to say that's worth listening to. Granted, I've had fun moments with other people, but personally nothing has yet to compare with being able to completely let yourself go free without anyone saying "What are you doing?"

After plenty of trips, I still have to say it depends on the people I would be tripping with. There are some people who I would never want to trip with ever again. They just have a way of bringing me down, either by babbling on and on about nothing, or laughing and slobbering uncontrollably shortly after commenting on how they can handle a large dose no problem. Other people compliment a trip by giving you someone to laugh with, cry with, or just bounce ideas/thoughts off of.I find I am very incompatible tripping with many other people- i have to have lighting/sounds just so and I am very introverted until after the peak, when i really enjoy engaging in conversation. I have only tripped once by myself, and it was very weird. But I really enjoyed it overall. Took a nice long hot shower and the running water was causing all these weird auditory halucinations that sounded like I was in some weird futuristic space ship. It was raining too, so it felt weird to get outta the shower and have the sound of running water continue. I felt so safe and warm from all this crazy galactic activity going on outside of my spaceship (my house). I lied down on my bed and listened to some Stairway to Heaven, I remember lying on my back during the solo and playing air guitar with a huge smile on my face. Who was gonna laugh at me for bein goofy? I was all by myself. I look forward to having another solo trip sometime soon.

Man I know what you mean about idiots who ramble on and on and on and on... about nothing.
My friend I tripped with last week would not shut up, he just kept saying, "its like, its like, its like, WOW, WOW holy shit! OMG!" etc. in a perpetual mind loop. I felt like a dick, but he was giving me a bad trip so I just had to be like "SHUT THE FUCK UP"

Did it get the message across? I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't 
Same thing happened to me. Tripping with a person who wouldn't stop going on and on saying things like "Woah, does my voice sound really weird?" "Woah, look at that, it's like an evil clown" "Woah, did you see that?" meanwhile I'm patiently reminding him "Everyone's experience is different, I'm not having the same experience as you, I didn't see that" until eventually I just had to say "This conversation is getting painful to follow, could I just ask that you stop talking for a bit?". He took it well and appologized... Didn't stop talking for more than 10 minutes though...

Yea I mean, I kinda feel bad because I was there once. Not in the sense of being a rambling fool, but just being new to the experience and thinking "omg wow!" So I just avoid tripping with those kinds of people because we will probably end up causing each other to have a bad time

Yes.
But it really depends who it is. Some people are too mentally unstable just to trip, so to trip alone is another thing. They have to be able to understand they are in control and just hallucinating, and not go and do something stupid that they make just be thinking about for the sligest second.

I prefer tripping alone. I like being alone in general and really enjoy 'me' time. A solo trip is like, 10000 hours worth of 'me' time crammed into one little trip

I haven't tripped in ages but I'm thinking of taking mushrooms by myself this summer. To tell the truth, other people just make me anxious, it's not like I have a social phobia or anything it's just like with weed the only time I ever get paranoid is when someone else is making me self-conscious. Having my wife around is different but 'friends' kind of get on my nerves. If I'm really drunk and then smoke weed it's cool but if I blow a couple bong hits with other people I'll start to feel uneasy. If I'm by myself I just space out on tunes or take a long bath with my water proof cd player and I always feel great. I love sex when I'm high, too. I figure shrooms will be about the same (I've done them before just not in a few years).

I find when I'm around other people, I am always torn between 'get drawn into myself' and the 'feel the need for social interaction'
There are very few people I can trip with where I feel comfortable getting 100% lost in my own world. Most people seem to want to talk / laugh / joke / etc -- which is good and all, and I enjoy that also. However, they seem to fail to grasp the concept of what I have coined 'spacing on the shitter' -- just sit there, relax, listen to music and let your thoughts wander.

I only trip alone... I don't really see my self as having bad social anxiety, but there is an element of self consciousness that i have that seems to get magnified when I'm tripping with others, then i usually just end up analyzing my friends personalities in my head and seeing them as fake, i don't like being that guy. Only ever had a blast tripping alone, I can do what i want and really journey into myself without distractions.
