If you have 1-2 pull-ups, do them (obv) to start rather than the abortive attempts.
I also wouldn't worry much about form/kipping/dead-hangs. If you want to stick with dead hangs, that is fine.

ok, thanks guys. very helpful. I had a feeling the bodyweight pullups were more effective anyway. So here's my plan:
Do as many sets of bodyweight chinups as possible, probably getting 1-2 reps each time. Let myself rest well between sets so I am not fatigued. If possible, do them a couple of times throughout the day. I will also try some pullups too, but I think they're a bit harder for me. I'll see.
Today I went to a kids soccer game and did some chinups.
2, 3, 2, 2, 3
I didn't go all the way down based on your suggestions.
