I've done FILD. I heard that's considered a type of WILD but other than that, I haven't tried any WILDS. I dont think I really know how to do WILDs right

Sounds like you have the same problem as my friend - Slow Sleep Insomnia. It's a condition where you can fall asleep, it just takes very long and your mind gets distracted. If you have a problem keeping focused, perhaps try a simple breathing excercise to clear your thoughts while you lie in the dark? This also helps to relax you so you can sleep better. If you manage to get your thoughts under control, I'm pretty sure you could really make this Lucid thing work for you ^_^
