Has anyone ever had a dream where you tried to wake yourself up but couldn’t?

I remember a dream from a year ago or so where something terrifying was happening I didn’t want to believe was real. I remember closing my eyes in the dream and counting down from 10 and opening them again only to still be there and then thinking maybe it wasn’t a dream. I think I rubbed my face a few times too. When I eventually did wake up I felt scared the entire day that my reality wasn’t real and I would wake up again. I think I remember pinching myself on the tram to work just to check and eventually later on accepting I was finally awake. But the dream threw me because I hadn’t been able to wake myself up and so it felt like that was my reality for a time until I eventually woke up properly.
