Am I supposed to put "me" in front of "tomo" or is the sentence correct as is ? "Me siento sucio si no tomo una ducha por las mañanas"

I actually think this is a case where you could do it with or without, but I will defer to someone who knows more on this one. - bosquederoble, Nov 4, 2014
I think that tomar isnot reflexive in this instance.Although, is it nor darse una ducha? - annierats, Nov 4, 2014

Frequently there are more than one way to express a given concept. In English, I showered, I took a shower, I had a shower... - bosquederoble, Nov 4, 2014
You're right Bosque. - annierats, Nov 5, 2014

Your sentence is totally correct in spanish.

Annierats' first suggestion is ok too, but the second one is not correct. It should be "Si no me duchara me sentiría sucio"
