From a psychological perspective, irregular and inconsistent sleep patterns are indicative of a mental health related concern. Stress and anxiety + overthinking can create that impact. You can get in touch with a psychologist to confirm the same and take up therapy to go ahead with the resolution.
However, before proceeding with this approach, it will help if you connect with a physician to rule out any physiological concerns.
