    Undergrad Is Wave-Particle Duality Really Real? An Analysis of the Double Slit Experiment

    Dr. Chinese- the only way that I could see to demonstrate that the photons 'stopped' going through the one hole is to somehow attach a photon counter to the rotated polarized slit and see if photons stopped flowing there. I also read that if one simply puts photon counters on the backside of...

    Medical Understanding ADHD & Ritalin for Focus and Attention Improvement

    I think if my child's mind was 24/7 like it is during the episodes, I would do anything to stop the suffering. I am not familiar with the new way they proceed but I am sure it is not an ice pick through the eye socket and then wiggle it around like was once done. I think our focus should go...

    Medical Understanding ADHD & Ritalin for Focus and Attention Improvement

    my child had ECT years ago for intractible depression and that also helped stop the OCD for a while. But Labotomy- Yikes- barbaric. So much else is damaged in the process. Look at President Kennedy's sister. And I can't believe that there is only ONE center in the N.E. that specializes in...

    Medical Understanding ADHD & Ritalin for Focus and Attention Improvement

    Dave C described it well. Constant and repetitive disturbing ruminatations like a computer loop. In my child's case it is a compulsive need to keep doing mathmatical calculations or keep saying the lyrics of a song, also my child is an artist so suddenly the need to 'draw' in the air...

    Medical Understanding ADHD & Ritalin for Focus and Attention Improvement

    thank you- but getting back to the fellow who needs help here, can you direct him to legitimate web sites where he can research his condition? AND did they teach you anything about the 'brainlock' part of OCD in med school? 3 previous Psych MD's my child saw thought this was 'psychosis'...

    Medical Understanding ADHD & Ritalin for Focus and Attention Improvement

    Thank you for your quick relpy. I hope it is helping here. My child is on an antidepressant that works. And has the Ativan as needed when the 'brain lock' symptom becomes overwhelming. She has been incorrectly diagnosed as psychotic by two Psych MDs twice overdosed on a psych med and had to...

    Medical Understanding ADHD & Ritalin for Focus and Attention Improvement

    What you are describing is my child's worst version of OCD. The non-medical name is Brain Lock. I believe that is the name of a book written on the subject. Try Amazon. It is more severe than ADD mind drift. The drug that helps stop it for her is Atavan an anti anxiety med. My child takes...

    Medical Understanding ADHD & Ritalin for Focus and Attention Improvement

    Having watched my childrens' suffering, I am fairly sure that I had ADD as a kid. I also had/have small movement disorder Tourettes. There were no meds back in the 50's and 60's. Nothing helped until I discovered biofeedback and ZEN as an adult. Much truth to chopping wood/carrying water if...

    Graduate Wave Particle Duality: Diffracting Particles Explained

    It is interesting your ZEN reference. I sit ZAZEN. The recently departed Abbot of the Monastery with which I am associated John Daido Lori met with Bohm in the past and held seminars, recognizing the connection of the mind illusion of a self not recognizing that we are emerging entities from...

    Fundamental things, emergent things

    You misunderstood me. ZEN is an A- religious practice of the mind. It recognizes consciousness as what fills the mind most of our waking life. ZEN strives to shut off the noise. To peel away the layers of all that mental chaff. To wake up to the moment in which we live. Recognize like I...

    Fundamental things, emergent things

    After sitting ZAZEN for many years, I have come to see that form is emptiness, emptiness is form. The sense of consciouness is the ever emerging firing of our synapse translated down to the level of illusion of "I am ". During long 'sits' I have had the experience of having it all suddenly...
