Stop resisting it. 
The reason to why it's a problem is because you view it as a problem.
I also had this "problem" and this still often happen to me. In fact, I notice close to every micro-awakening I have every night. And during these times, I am very alert and if I would view this a stressful, I would not be able to fall back to sleep either. Tension is the opposite of relaxation.
What I do instead is that I accept it fully and turn the problem into a solution.
Closing one's eyes and falling asleep is unconscious sleep, however, closing one's eyes and being aware and observing, that is conscious sleep!
So learn meditation and do it during these moments and you can either:
A. Fall asleep with a higher degree of wakefulness which increases your chances to DILD.
Or
B. Meditate and sleep consciously and increase your chances to WILD.
Win - Win 
So if you learn meditation, your extreme wakefulness is no longer a problem, but an advantage.
Opportunities are brilliantly disguised as impossible or uncomfortable situations.
Peace!
