Sleep poll

This is a poll. Please respond in the comments. Anonymous comments are welcome in polls.

Apparently, it takes the average person seven minutes to fall asleep. I find this difficult to believe.

How long does it take you to fall asleep?

It takes me like 2 hours.

It varies with me, but I would say about an hour or so is typical--unless I'm sick, unusually wound up or just exhausted.

It varies for me ... usually I do stuff or read until I'm completely wiped. Generally, it takes me 15-20 mins to knock myself out.

I'm not sure: I always fall asleep when I am timing myself. I may need to hire someone to figure this out.=

Obviously it varies. Most of the time if time it right less than 10 minutes. Time passes slowly when you have nothing else to do. But if I don't get to the land of nod in ten, I wind up thinking, and sometimes reading. And then when I am tired yet again, I go to sleep in about 10 minutes.

I think the problem is - does just lying there wondering what to do next when you cannot get to sleep, counted towards the time of trying to get to sleep.
