Does anyone else feel like their delayed sleep phase is actually a biological glitch?

I have spent the last decade trying to force my brain into a traditional nine-to-five schedule, but no matter how much light therapy or melatonin I throw at it, I still do not feel human until 2:00 AM. It feels like my internal clock is fundamentally broken in a world designed for early risers. I have started wondering if this is actually a genetic remnant of some ancestral 'night watchman' role or if my circadian rhythm just never got the memo about modern society. Sometimes I feel like a high-performance computer running on the wrong operating system. Does anyone else out there feel like their delayed sleep phase isn't just a disorder, but perhaps a misaligned biological specialty? How do you manage the social stigma of being a night owl in a world that praises the sunrise? I would love to hear if anyone has found a way to stop fighting their own biology and actually embrace it instead of feeling like a failure every morning.
