Rumpelstiltskin theory
I have a better theory: atoms do whatever they want to do, and not all atoms want the same thing. Some atoms do anything they can to stay the same - they are stable isotopes. Some other atoms do anything they can to change - they are unstable isotopes. I think my theory explains everything.

In what sense? Actually, you hear your breathing underwater, but you quickly stop noticing it.

Schizophrenia and diving
It might be so, but I doubt. I think, it had something to do with the environmental impact, maybe sensory, while diving. Being home alone, in a quiet house, painting (her other passion) did not have this effect. On the second thought, maybe the effect is relatively short lived. A dive lasts only about an hour.

It is wrong. You might get a better understanding if you find it yourself.

Thanks. Yes, the patients in that article are too different from Y to compare.

Schizophrenia and diving
Perhaps hyperbaric chamber experiments could help to distinguish between these effects. Have such experiments been conducted on psychiatric patients? She dived in cold water, too, with the same effect. But she wore a dry suit then, so I'm not sure it counts. She stayed far from the depths where these effects would start working. OTOH, she liked to go as deep as PADI safety rules allowed. Possibly, she felt better when she was deeper, although she felt good while diving at any depth.

It is not a "correct addition of velocities."

In addition to the explanation above, notice a little apostrophe (') on the left. It is crucial.

Why do we use slang? (Biology/Philosophy)
Whereas jargon is specialized vocabulary used by those inside established social groups, often defined by professional status (e.g. legal jargon), slang is more typically used among those who are outside established higher-status groups. Slang, or “colloquial speech,” describes words or phrases that are used instead of more everyday terms among younger speakers and other groups with special interests. The word bucks (for dollars or money) has been a slang expression for more than a hundred years in the United States, but the addition of mega- (“a lot of”) in megabucks is a more recent innovation, along with dead presidents (whose pictures are on paper money) and benjamins (from Benjamin Franklin, on $100 bills). According to one recent description, “Slang is a highly informal and unconventional type of vocabulary. It is perceived as deeply expressive, attractively catchy, and deliberately undignified” (Widawski, 2015: 8). Like clothing and music, slang is an aspect of social life that is subject to fashion, especially among adolescents. It can be used by those inside a group who share ideas and attitudes as a way of distinguishing themselves from others. As a marker of group identity during a limited stage of life such as early adolescence, slang expressions can “grow old” rather quickly. Older forms for “really good” such as groovy, hip and super were replaced by awesome, rad and wicked which gave way to dope, kickass and phat. A hunk (“physically attractive man”) became a hottie and, instead of something being the pits (“really bad”), the next generation thought it was a bummer, harsh!, or said, That’s sucky!. The difference in slang use between groups divided into older and younger speakers provides some of the clearest support for the idea that age is another important factor involved in the study of social variation in language use.

Help with integrals
X1/2(X-2)= X1/2*X - X1/2*2= X1/2+1 - 2X1/2= X3/2 - 2X1/2 It is algebra. Nothing to do with integrals.

Schizophrenia and diving
I knew a young woman, let's call her Y, with a severe mental illness, which made her feeling very unhappy most of the time. One of the rare but consistent situations when she was always very happy, was while SCUBA diving. I thought that this effect was psychological, e.g., taking her mind away from her worries. But now I wonder if there could be a physiological effect, e.g., of a higher oxygen partial pressure. (She usually dived on Nitrox.)

Guidelines to Happiness
Although these recommendations might be helpful sometimes, I disagree for them to be guidelines. Let's look at ##5-7, which are about errors/mistakes and constitute 1/3 of the set: They all assume that errors/mistakes are 'bad things'. They promote fear of making errors/mistakes. I disagree. I'd replace them with the following: 5'. Remain engaged in what you are currently doing and don't be afraid of errors. 6'. When you do make an error, admit that it was an error. 7'. Analyse your error to find its source and to check if there is something useful in it anyway, if it can be converted to a positive thing, if it is in fact "a blessing in disguise". Be ready for serendipities.

I don't need to think so because there is no conflict between mathematics and physics. YOUR so-called "laws of physics" are nonsense.

How Do you define "Change of environment" In a math equation
State of a particle, including atom, is a concept in quantum mechanics. It is represented there by wave-function. @exchemist has referred you to quantum mechanics already.
-
How Do you define "Change of environment" In a math equation
It depends on how you measure "state of an atom" or "change of environment."

Rumpelstiltskin theory
More examples will not add support for your idea. For example, I might have an idea that "everything is round" and bring many examples of round things. The idea still would be wrong.
