Sleep phase disorder: Advance your bedtime by 2 hours every couple of days until you reach your goal bedtime. So go to bed at 2 pm then 4 pm, etc. Until 10 pm bedtime, for example.

During the week, I only seem to sleep in two 3-4 hour segments. Fall asleep around 11 pm, wake up at 3am, fall asleep at 3:30 to wake up at 6:30. Then I sleep from 7-9. Is that harmful?
