Teenage forum on the goods and bads of social media: girledworld joins Melbourne Writers' Festival 2019

Are you using your thoughts to push yourself in new desired directions, or is the way you think having a negative impact on your life?

Unfortunately, most of us fall victim to distorted and disempowered thinking patterns that can cause unnecessary suffering.

Why? Because our emotions can often distort our reality.

Don’t forget to give yourself a reality check from time to time, and get off social media once in a while to give yourself a break from the emotional rollercoaster it can sometimes take you on.

Join us @melbwritersfest #MWF19 Schools’ Program this week on Thursday September 5 in a public forum with 200 students and teachers to unpack the role of #socialmedia and #selfies in teenage personal narrative and identity development.

‘In Search of Selfie’
