A GERMAN toymaker is selling a range of soft toys, each of which has their own psychiatric disorder.Maybe someone can send Charles Johnson the hallucinating snake.
The toys range from Dub, a turtle who suffers depression, to Kroko, a crocodile with an acute phobia of water, as well as an hallucinating snake called Sly and a sheep called Dolly who has a personality disorder, Metro newspaper in London reports.
"It started as a bit of a joke with my girlfriend, who has lots of soft toys, and then we thought there could be something in the idea," said toymaker Martin Kittsteiner, 36, of Hamburg.
"Children and grown ups like their vulnerability and find something in them that gives them a great sense of comfort in helping to heal them.
"I think some adults see it as a form of therapy for themselves."
