Abstract We discuss methods of adding dissipation to the Schrödinger equation in light of the quantum-potential interpretation of quantum mechanics. This favors nonlinear equations in general and Kostin's Schrödinger-Langevin equation in particular. We give a simple example, the damping of small coherent oscillations.
