Explanation
Daily routine runs on reflexives: despertarse, levantarse, ducharse, vestirse, acostarse. The pronoun matches the subject and follows clitic placement rules: voy a ducharme / me voy a duchar.
Some verbs only exist with se (quejarse, arrepentirse, atreverse), and others change nuance with it — see reflexive meaning changes (ir/irse, dormir/dormirse).
