AITA for getting my friends in actual trouble over what they keep calling a harmless prank?

Bit of context first. I (24f) have a pretty serious nut allergy, the proper kind where i carry an epipen everywhere, and everyone in my life knows this and has always taken it seriously, or so i thought. Its not a fussy preference thing, it can genuinely put me in hospital.

So a few weekends ago i was at a house party and ill be honest i got absolutely hammered, way more than i should have. At some point my mates brought over a plate of brownies and because i wasnt thinking straight i actually checked, i literally asked "theres no nuts in these right" and they all went "nah youre fine, theyre the safe ones." They tasted a bit weird to me but i was so drunk i just assumed it was me and carried on.

Turns out they were not the safe ones. I didnt have a full reaction thank god, probably because id eaten so little of one, but i woke up the next day with my lips and throat feeling off and genuinely scared about what couldve happened. Then my sister messaged me telling me to look at one of their stories.

It was them filming the actual nut brownie packaging, then filming themselves handing them to me, with the bit where i asked if they were safe left in, and then later clips of them doing impressions of me having a reaction, miming clutching their throat and pretending to inject an epipen while laughing. They thought the whole thing was hilarious.

I screen recorded all of it and i took it to the police, because to me they knowingly gave someone with a serious allergy the exact thing that could land them in hospital, filmed it, and put it online to humiliate me. Three of them are now dealing with the fallout from that and theyre all furious, saying im completely overreacting and ive ruined everything over a stupid joke.

AITA?
