Social Media & Self Image

Filtered images and selected moments on social media portray unrealistic goals, which puts overwhelming pressure on young people. The stress to fit in can provoke anxiety, depression, or eating and drug disorders. So, it’s vital to help them understand how the internet can affect their self-image and how to avoid falling into the pressures of online society.

About this course

Social media is a great way to contact celebrities and catch up with friends. And where else could you share pictures of your dinner, or funny memes? But being a social media butterfly can also be very damaging for young people. Feeling like they need to keep up with the amazing lives of the beautiful people can put big pressure on their self-image, leading to some pretty serious consequences. This course will help you understand why people are so involved in online societies, and how they are influenced, so you can help stop yourself, and others, from being sucked into the competition.
