More Corrections For Nothing

From the post "We Have A Problem, Coulomb's Law" dated 20 Nov 14,

\(F_v=2\cfrac { qc^{ 2 } }{ x } e^{i\pi/2}\)

and from "Wrong, Wrong, Wrong" dated 25 May 15,

\(F=\int{F_v}\,d\,x\)

The force in the field due to a particle is,

\(F=2\int{\cfrac { qc^{ 2 } }{ x } }\,d\,x.={2{ qc^{ 2 } }{ ln(x) } }+C\)

where we have dropped the phase information,  \(e^{i\pi/2}\).

but \(F=-\psi\), so,

\(\psi=-2{ qc^{ 2 } }{ ln(x) }+A\)

However, \(\psi\) cannot be less than zero.  So, both \(F\) and \(\psi\) is valid up till \(\psi=0\).

This is not the inverse square law!  And what happens to \(F\) after \(\psi=0\)?
