Coming Back

 A mind coming back to function can be quite manic and chatty. I remember at a Vipassana retreat, after 10 days of not speaking to anyone, the speaking constraint was lifted at the conclusion and after that, the conversation was raucous, loud, and high velocity, like at a party when everyone is wasted and getting excited, and then incrementally yelling over one another as everything got louder. In this case everyone was stone sober, but ah, high on life.
