When I was a freshly graduated paramedic I responded to a attempted mass suicide of a cult.(Around 15 people)
They thought the apocalypse would be coming... By inciting, well, basically an orgy,with all sexual inhibitions falling and humans sinning beyond belief. While some of their fears were at least somewhat relatable (like fathers laying their hand on their daughters) most of it was batshit crazy. They believed they need to kill themself before that happens so they would still get into heaven.
...they fucked that up,massively,as well. None died.
Jesus Christ. Can you tell us more?
How did they fuck up dying?
Can you say where/what they called themselves?
What was the most batshit crazy part of it?
Basically they underdosed so hard that even 14 year old drug addict does take more - and very likely their stuff didn't partially work at all, as they put it in tea. So... Most of them did only feel very good/bad/nauseated, some got unconscious.
The crazy part was me coming into that room seeing them and VERY MUCH reconsidering my life choices. I graduated a few weeks backs, just got pissed and spat on the call before and now that. And then panicing a bit and calling dispatch to "send me everything ". Which they did and ended up...a bit much... Like...very much too much.
Can't remember the name and can't tell either,sorry. That is a long time ago,20 years+ some.
