Le besoin de sommeil survient généralement chaque soir à la même heure, annoncé par une sensation de fatigue, de faible activité mentale, de froid. Si nous nous couchons au moment où ces signes apparaissent, l'endormissement est rapide. La latence d'endormissement, temps qui s'écoule entre le moment où l'on a décidé de dormir, [d'éteindre les lumières et de fermer] les yeux et le moment où l'on s'endort vraiment sera brève [...] 3, record 1, French, - latence%20d%27endormissement
