coalescentSpotted by one of my colleagues at the American Psychological Association Annual Convention: My Therapy Buddy.
I'm torn between laughing and wanting one.
MTB is a transitional object, in the form of a personal companion primarily designed for the internalization of various maternal-like functions which are considered to be the building blocks of our psychic structure. It’s a wonderfully soft and huggable friend that offers great tactile contact, and provides soothing and comforting words which are beneficial to one’s emotional well being.

Date: 2006-03-27 07:34 pm (UTC)I thought the panel missed the boat on this! I'll bet my friends on antidepressants would love this. I don't know if it would reduce the need for meds, but it sure would give them a laugh!! (And That's o.k.) LOL
I'm waiting for the cheaper, smaller version.

Or, as with the fashion fad return of adult-sized baby suckers, this is a return to infantalist fashion?
