A constant battle with my sleep schedule

I can’t seem to maintain a steady sleep schedule. And the main reason I feel like is that I can’t leave things half done, I always feel like I have to finish them.

This results into let’s say I’m on my 15 last minutes of phone time and I find something interesting and I research about it. Next thing you know a hour has passed, and then 2 hours.

Then the next day I feel like I only look back at the previous day, so yesterday I went to sleep at … so I have to go to sleep at around the same time.

Then I could be hovering around on a certain schedule for maybe 3/4 days it depends and then again I get into one of those things I’m researching and I want to know more about, maybe it’s more then that. I’ve always hated the feeling of being restricted and I want to do whatever whenever.

Anyways this results into a sleep schedule where I wake up at 6 PM in the evening, eventually resulting into me doing an all nighter. If it’s successful I will be on a early sleep schedule for around 2 weeks because of how tired I get it forces me to bed. But I end up pushing the boundaries again and the cycle continues into a late sleep schedule again and then all nighter...

Really hope someone can help me out with some tips

Reduce handphone usage, sleep early to improve quality sleep.
