My sleep cycle has slipped now that I'm back living with parents. (It's currently 4:30 am and I'm writing this instead of going to bed.) Two possibly related factors:
I like to shower shortly before bed; or more accurately, I feel I should shower once a day and I rarely shower early. My parents also stay up late, and they get annoyed if I don't warn them before I shower and give them a chance to use the bathroom. The result of this seems to be that I wait until they're in bed before I shower.
I use my bed as storage space more than I did at university, possibly because I have less/oddly shaped floorspace. Before I can go to bed I need to move everything off it.

This really helps if you set yourself a reminder at a reasonable time and if your meta-akrasia is sufficiently low.
I have been using melatonin, but not to force myself to go to bed. I'll try that tonight if I'm still up at 4am.
