If WakeMate is any good, it will end up being mission-critical for me. I've lost control of my sleep schedule and I can't move it backward because I just end up wasting a day due to tiredness and unable to keep it from slipping forward again.

How about moving it forward enough to make it wrap around?
I've wrapped on several occasions by pulling an all-nighter. It just keeps slipping forward to equilibrium. For concreteness, this has resulted in instances where I will awaken at 3 PM one day and 3 AM the next (36 hours later). Staying up extra-late so as to go to bed at a normal time and re-adjust just doesn't do it for me.
Have you tried getting a significant other (for cohabitation or marriage) with a sane sleep cycle? Worked for me.
The problem with this problem is that it's much easier to attract a significant other with a similarly broken sleep cycle.
If two people do it, it's no longer anti-social.
