Self-Baptism or Suicide Attempt

The Irish Outlaw

I believe "Self-Baptism" is a nice way of saying "Failed Suicide Attempt."

Explanation

The joke plays on the absurdity of calling a failed suicide attempt 'self-baptism'. It's dark humor that uses a religious term to describe something tragic. The humor comes from the unexpected juxtaposition of the sacred act of baptism with the morbid act of suicide.
