Do you have dream paralysis? That's what I think I have.

Whatever the dream is, and there are a variety of situations, but I'm 'stuck'. I'm dreaming but I can't move.

I strain to get free and move but can't break free.

At the end of the dream I wake up, usually wrapped up in bedsheets and physically aching from trying to unbind myself.

As an example, I had a dream where I was on a reality TV show. The point was to get from point A to point B. I was really struggling to crawl to point B. Then I saw my body on the floor being attended to by an EMT. Seeing my body with the EMT triggered something and I woke up as I was physically stepping out of the bed in real life.
