A bit confusing but are you saying that they're so interlinked that they are reacting off each other?
In that case, it'd be very dismissive to claim tattoos cause the self destructive behaviour since they've existed for centuries but the can signify being part of a group and once they have that association then their behaviour may be worse depending on which group they associate with.
I'm not claiming either way. But sometimes the cause is the the effect and vise versa. And sometimes they cause each other in a perpetual loop. My statements were more on the language of causality, and not the topic itself. As it tends to lock one into a singular logic set.
