What time do you go to sleep? Also any hints of sleep apnoe?

I tried all kinds of schedules, currently from 4-5 to around 14h.

Regarding apnea - no perceptible stoppage of breathing during the night according to my partner, but I do snore sometimes. I was getting ready to do a sleep study just before the pandemic hit, I hope I will be able to do it soon.

Hypothyroidism? It's a simple blood test, you'll be able to get it done even now.

My thyroid hormone levels are normal, I've had them tested a few times (for reasons unrelated to sleep).
