You might be suffering from Delayed sleep phase syndrome
It’s advisable to consult a psychiatrist for a more detailed evaluation to rule out other causes of insomnia, co morbid depression/ anxiety issues, substance use affecting sleep cycle
Accordingly you’ll be explained sleep hygiene and started on meds.
Please avoid OTC melatonin
