They say SSILD at the beginning of the night is a waste of time, but I find it increases recall/awareness in the first few hours of sleep.

I still got lucid anyway after I slept in past 8 hours though, so that's cool.

Oh well, tonight will be the night. It takes so little time to do, I have no excuse not to do it instead of just falling back asleep.

I belive SSILD Method up to certain degree is similar to WILD
That's why they people say it's waste of time to try at start of the night
Probably best time for SSILD would be wbtb with waking up during active rem cycle

Like this:
- Sleep For 7 Hours
- You Wake Up In Middle Of Rem Cycle
- You Apply SSILD

After few hours of sleeping your rem cycles are longer
It might be the case that effect of SSILD Practice slowly faints as your mind stays in dreamless nrem sleep
So getting to the REM Dream should be most important i belive
