I've tended not to get aftercare, and so will just curl up on my own for a while. This works well in clubs too.
When I worked, I'd come home, eat something (usually dairy) as food grounds me, and then go to sleep.
That said, I like aftercare, saying I need it isn't accurate, because I do function without it, but I function much better with it. Again there's the curling up somewhere warm, but, having someone there with me, talking to me (about whatever it is that I'm babbling on about, I tend to talk like a drunk person ie about things I wouldn't talk about whilst sober), saying nice things like how happy they are; I tend to worry about that, so do need the reassurance that they are okay, happy, and pleased, the odd touch of physical affection (too much spooks me, I've had bad experiences).
I tend to crash if I don't properly take care of myself, which can be a result of not having time and space to, or just not knowing what to do at a given time. Not having what I need also makes it worse. The biggest "drop" I ever experienced was having to go home away from people I care about after a lovely weekend. It was the leaving that messed up my head.
