How long does it take you to get back to being yourself after mixing with other people

How long does it take you to get back to being yourself after mixing with large groups of NT people and masking, particularly at work? 

I find it takes me a couple of days until I get back to being me again. Like I finished work for the week on Wednesday and on Thursday I was still being the person I was when I was masking at work. I couldn't stop myself. Took till today before I felt like I finally got back in touch with myself again and felt like me

Does this happen to anyone else? Almost like the pretending to be normal is a switch you can't switch off
