of course it takes time to transition between the two cultures
some people can do it in an instant and others take time
also remember that you miss out on trends and cultural events and little silly news that you didnt hear about while being there
take ur time this feeling will not last onger than a months and a half if not less

Absolutely. It's kinda like 'reverse culture shock'. In the time you've been away, you have both grown used to a new culture and missed out on that time in your 'home' culture. (For me it was time away from Australia.)
Just ease yourself back in, share your experiences with others and maybe try to reproduce elements you liked of the culture you were living in.

It's normal to feel out of place but that feeling will go away as you get settled.
