I would advise you to visit the ER and get evaluated and undergo investigations such as CBC, thyroid profile, Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, etc to find the underlying cause f the problem and have it treated accordingly. These steps may help:
- When you sleep irregular hours, your internal clock, known as circadian rhythm, gets altered and our body doesn't know when it's supposed to sleep. You should set an ideal time at night to sleep in a manner where you get 8 hours of sleep, so avoid trying to sleep in the time in between.
- Have an active life where you exercise regularly.
- Have a light meal at night before sleeping
- Avoid non sleep activities while on bed such as mobile phones, laptop, TV
- Avoid smoking and drinking if you have the habit
- Avoid caffeine and carbonated drinks as the caffeine and sugar will stimulate the brain and keep you awake and more than 4 cups a day will affect you badly.
- Don't skip meals and have a balanced diet, avoid spicy, oily, deep fried and junk food.
- Drink a minimum of 3 liters of water per day.
- Destress yourself with means such as yoga/meditation
