Hello there.
It's fair to say that QM confuses me, a lot.
Does anyone recommend any lectures/documentaries that i could watch to further my understanding of QM

I'd prefer to watch lectures if i be honest, because i know that documentaries are dumbed down for the public (lets face it they have to be). I have seen Brian Greene's fabric of the cosmos and a night with the stars with Brian Cox
I'd like to get a deeper understanding of the subject.

Not an expert in QM. AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is quite different from the classical wave equation. The former is an equation for the dynamics of the state of a (quantum?) system, the latter is an equation for the dynamics of a (classical) degree of freedom. As a matter of fact, Schrödinger's equation is first order in time derivatives, while the classical wave equation is second order. But, AFAIK, Schrödinger's equation is a wave equation; only its interpretation makes it non-classical...

Is it possible, and fruitful, to use certain conceptual and technical tools from effective field theory (coarse-graining/integrating-out, power-counting, matching, RG) to think about the relationship between the fundamental (quantum) and the emergent (classical), both to account for the quasi-autonomy of the classical level and to quantify residual quantum corrections? By “emergent,” I mean the following: after integrating out fast/irrelevant quantum degrees of freedom (high-energy modes...
