Desperté can also be used to say "I woke up", but it sounds too formal. You will find it only in books. In normal spoken Spanish we use "me desperté" all the time, and we leave "desperté" for when we wake others up (e.g. I woke him up)

as far as i know, the verb despertar could mean to wake up (something) or (somebody).
despertarse is to reflect the action back---|> me desperté

Yes, but I'm suprised that it is not

Me desperté.
