Welcome to the forum, Shac.

The other members have given you the infinitive (non-conjugated) verb.

Here are some examples of how to use the verb in sentences:

1) Me despierto a las cinco de la mañana todo los días. (I wake up at five every day)

2) ¿A qué hora se despertaron esta mañana? (What time did they wake up today?)

3) ¡Despiértate! (Wake up! informal command)

Despertarse on its own is the infinative of the verb and means to wake up, when you are telling someone to wake you need to use the imperative command "Despiértate" - kenwilliams, Feb 24, 2012

Despertarse is what I'm told.
