Why do think you tend to work longer hours? I never had that that issue but I feel is very related to the work itself.
Part of it is that some colleagues are on the East Coast, and others are on the West Coast. I'm in the middle, so I start early to align with the East Coast, and then often get involved in things with the West Coast in their afternoon.
So you're right, definitely connected to the work.
Another part is that I'm just bad at not checking messages/dialing notifications... But that's a me problem.
Don't blame yourself. I know a lot of people in situations similar and they also blame themselves. Maybe you can improve on disconnecting from work, try to pause notifications after you are out, or turn off your phone. At least for me it works pretty well.
