It's hard to read tone over the internet. We don't have any idea what else that guy thinks & I don't think it's fair to assume.
I don't think it's hard to read tone over the internet. Based on a single post, yes. But after seeing a few posts from someone, you can get an idea of what kind of person they are.
I can't speak for that guy, I can only speak for me: I'm not special. I'm just stupid & incapable & disabled. This is true for me in EVERY area of my life, not just my attempted suicides lol. When I was really young I didn't understand much about the body, & my first two attempts were never going to work because they were too painful, but I didn't understand the psychological reactions to pain at that age & thought I could do it. The third I was almost successful but I made a stupid error that cost me. The 4th was a complete failure because I tried another extremely painful method I made up….. 5th was the closest I ever got & I'm doing research now so I won't mess up ever again.
You seem like someone who sees her situation for what it is. You're honest with yourself, and probably with others as well (based on your comment). You're looking at the nature of your problem in a constructive way instead of just making meaningless shitposts flaunting your 'numbers' like they were some sort of achievement. You're not using the term "suicide attempt" in an unreasonable way. You're not the kind of person I was describing.
For me, I don't like myself. I'm sure that's common here, not special at all. So sometimes there is a huge temptation to self harm during my suicide. Sometimes even though I know some methods work better, they don't seem violent or painful enough for someone like me. I just have a desire to really make sure I suffer appropriately. Which is somehow counterproductive to my suicide. But I certainly don't feel special at all. I don't know why you'd assume that.
By saying "feel special", I was being sarcastic. The implication was that I don't understand why some people feel like they have the
special privilege to cry 'suicide' when all they need is just attention. Seeking attention, expressing emotional pain, and asking for help are absolutely fine. Just be honest about it.
I don't judge people who self-harm either. But if your goal is self-harm, then don't call it a suicide attempt. (I'm not saying you did that. I'm talking in general.) Throwing the term around is dishonest when all the person wants is just attention. It's like going to the doctor and saying your stomach hurts when in reality you just want to talk to someone. It's annoying, it doesn't help the person, and it's just a waste of time.
but if im still here by my birthday 
I have plans to "celebrate"
