A moment of your time, if I may.

I seek the advice of anyone skilled in the usage of dreamotion magic, most especially those who made use of their own kind of magic before arriving here. Anyone is welcome to contribute what they know, of course. I'll take any advice into account.

I've managed to grasp the basics of how everything operates here, though I've found that the spells I've attempted have been erratic and inconsistent in nearly any situation, even if emotions are not a factor.

My request? Pray tell me if this is aught you've experienced or even similar. Normally I would work alone to pinpoint and fix my own shortcomings, but [Something was written here and then quickly scratched out, replaced with:] ah, never mind that. I'd like to hear what others have to say on the matter.

My thanks in advance.

The type of magic utilized in my own world has many similarities to dreamotion. I did not find it difficult to adapt to dreamotion once I learned the basic principles, but it stands to reason that it would be more challenging for those whose own style of magic works in a different fashion.

I would imagine that the amount of training one has had would play a role as well.
