I understand your problem well, I have experienced it many times. I do not know your full procedure tho, so i can not tell you what exactly the problem is, but I can speak on some general points. On should attempt a WILD early in the morning using the WBTB method, or early in the afternoon while the mind is still pretty fresh. It is best to lay on your back I have found on a very mild incline. Of course the ideal situation is to go right into the LD state, but sometimes a few moments of blackness does occur, usually a few seconds, but if you have done the enough of the visual and tactile imagination techniques and so on one should if all goes well 'wake up' in the vibrational or full LD state. Make sure you are not focusing too hard or too lightly on whatever technique you are doing. For me...
35% of the time a fully conscious transition will occur. 35% of the time there will be a temporary loss of consciousness, but a lucid dream state will start. 30% will end in falling asleep fully or not being able to fall asleep at all.
I would highly suggest being careful about expectations and over analysis while making a attempt, if your mind gets going in the wrong directions it can mess the whole thing up I know that for a fact. Like Crowley said "Act without lust of result; work without anxiety; taste without attachment to flavour". Also, If you are getting too awake do a method that takes a small amount of focus, if you are too tired do a more complex one.
Here is my procedure.
1. affirmations.
2. Visual tactile imagination. Create for yourself using the imagination a mental body, identify with it as much as you can, feel through it, see through it. Move up and out of ones physical location toward the ceiling in this new body. One can also simply imagine this body as a sphere of any colour, what is important is that you identify with its movements up down left and right. I just keep doing this over and over again. If you want you can extend the mental roaming to outside. What one should be looking for is a sense of tingling, pulsation, vibration, or pulling in your body.
