I agree. I used to make the same mistake. Until I realised that it is best to go back to how people slept before electric light was invented; i.e. it is best to align your sleep cycle with the Sun's movement.
Of course, maybe it's harder to do this nearer the poles but, in the tropics we get near equal hours of day and night.
I have found sleeping early and staying away from modern tech 30-45 mins. before sleep to be _immensely_ beneficial.
