Yes. It's bad not just socially, but health-wise aswell. You're supposed to get up early in the morning, live your ordinary day, meet up with ordinary day, chat about ordinary stuff, eat, drink, watch tv, clean the house, pray, worship whatever, and then sleep at night.
Our body works around a body clock. The disruption of your 'body clock', a small cluster of brain cells that controls the timing of biological functions (circadian rhythms), including when you eat and sleep can cause problems. The body clock is designed for a regular rhythm of daylight and darkness, so it's thrown out of sync when it experiences liight and darkness at the 'wrong' times. And you can suffer from problems, such as oversleeping, overeating, depression, despair, anxiety, tiredness, behavioral problems etc.

It's only bad if you feel it is, everyone's body works differently. People who work night shifts do the same thing. It also depends on your circadian rhythm. This is what makes people "early birds" or "night owls". You are either born one way or the other. The bad thing about sleeping at night is that you don't get any sun light and your body needs it to feel its best. If you want to change your sleeping habits the best way to do it (so i've been told by my doctor) is to start waking up at a normal time and NOT GO TO SLEEP no matter how sleepy you are until night. You will feel pretty out of it for a few days, depending on how many hours earlier you go to bed, but you'll start to sleep at night properly after about a week or so.

Most of the world is awake during the day and sleeps at night. So if you want to fit in to society easier, you should get into the habit of sleeping at night, or you could, get a job with a graveyard shift, and stay on your current timetable.

It means you are missing a lot...I assume you are not at school or working and don't have any family responsibilities!
You need to get into a more normal routine ...a job would do it nicely

it will mess you up if you have something to do in the daytime, like a meeting... it's like jet lag.
