Like you stated, it is someone who tries to follow their leader.
At the same time, there are also rumors of Zayn doing certain things.
As a result, a negative impact has been placed into making the adolescents think that it is ok to cut themselves.
If we submerge this thought into the Preconscious level, there could be past memories which may lead to this outcome.
Keep in mind, one person can greatly affect another's decisions. For example, this instagram account shows pictures of people cutting themselves.
If people do not think straight, they may suggest that as also a good idea and do it as well.
It is a chain reaction. One becomes two. Two becomes three. And so forth!
Now, if we talk about the conscious level, this is when we think straight. We have our thoughts and different perceptions.
If we talk about the brain and a certain age group. A teenager's prefrontal cortex is not fully developed.
Notice the prefix "pre". The prefrontal cortex is fully developed at a certain age and is in charge of decision making.
As a result of the development of the brain, inappropriate behaviour is done.
This is ultimately the difference between proper and improper decisions.
