If I were in your position i would try the wake back to bed method it will add more awareness to your thoughts before you even make your lucid statements at night. & Im a avid supporter of it because it has yeilded several lucid dreams for me with in the last month. namaste
Actually, I do WBTB, I have trained myself to wake up naturaly at 4:00 almost every night. I think my problem is that when I think "dream" or "lucid dream" I don't put any thought to what the words mean. The word dream doesn't invoke anything in my mind when I say it. But when other people say it I immediately focus all of my attention on that word, as if it shocks me.

I think I just need to train myself to think about the word when I say it.
