It usually takes me 1-3hours to fall asleep every night. Needless to say this affects my sleep and my life, thank god I don't have to get up early for work! [/b]
This is what I do! Are you by any chance a Visual person? VAK test post here

Just wondering - does it take 1-3 hours to fall asleep because you are trying to WILD?
Do you go lucid from within a normal dream (DILD)?

Perhaps if you want better sleep, but still want to LD you could find ways to relax before trying to sleep, then set your alarm for 5am or something and WILD form there. Already being relaxed should make the WILD quicker.
