We show that a physically motivated trial solution of a dampeddriven non-linear Schr ̈odinger equation does neither encounter collapse norso-called pseudocollapse although the exponent of the non-linearity is crit-ical. This result sheds new light on the accuracy of numerical solutions tothis problem obtained in an earlier paper where the authors claim pseudo-collapse of the trial solution when the variance of the driving noise is below a certain level.
