This scientific name for "Very fucked up sleep schedule" is Delayed sleep phase syndrome

"Delayed sleep phase syndrome (DSPS) ... is a sleep disorder of circadian rhythm."

"Delayed sleep phase syndrome results from a disturbance between the patient?s internal biological clock and the external environment."

"A person with this disorder is typically unable to fall asleep before 2 a.m. and has great difficulty waking early, say by 7 a.m."

"The main difficulty for a person with DSPS is meeting the expectations of society, i.e. functioning early for school or work."

"Many physicians observe people [with DSPS] in careers that allow alternative sleep-wake patterns, like work-at-home jobs, computer programming, or artistic careers."
