I use wild and wbtb and DILD and DEILD. What relaxation tech do you use to fall asleep? You should be able to overcome it from that. Unless it is just stress related, in which case you need to deal with stress in order to LD anyways. My WBTB is what I call a micro WBTB. It is short and I wake myself up only to the point that I know I can fall back to sleep. I wake up 4-6 times a night. I put my dreams down at night like this:

I have used a recorder before, but I just use my journal app on my phone now that I can fall asleep at will (even with the severe allergies that I have right now).
I wild about twice a week. I lean towards DILD as much as possible because if you try to force a wild it will lead to insomnia, and I don't want to miss a chance to DILD because of wild.
Also, 1 LD a week seems like a lot at first, but the more that you have, the more that you want. Most people fail at their goals by a little bit. Aim for the stars, miss by miles. I never wanted 1 LD a week. I want to always be lucid in every dream. Set high future goals and reasonable short term goals. If you want, I should be able to get you to 1 LD a week (on average) in a couple months. Just PM me! 
Have you looked up how to deal with insomnia? If not, I have some hints and tips for you.
