I would personally try my hardest to stay awake during the day (no matter how hard) for a few weeks and hopefully you can bring your "clock" back to it's normal nighttime sleep.

Some people, like myself, are cursed by a genetic mutation called the after-hours gene. It is speculated that this gene is responsible for regulating the body's internal clock (the circadian rhythm) and those who possess it work on a 27 hour day instead of 24 hours like normal folks. If you don't have any reason to be up in the morning just stay up late and be proud to be a night owl. If it is something that bothers you, try taking a melatonin supplement. Melatonin is the hormone that makes you sleepy; normal people start secreting it around midnight. Not so much insomnia, but definitely a sleep disorder.
