The only thing it may tell you about him/her is how distraught they may have been, however, being in the state of mind where one concludes life is not worth living, obviously, the thought processes are pretty well shot...no pun intended.

If I Am Interpreting Your Question Correctly
I Think The METHOD Is Decided By
How DETERMINED The Person Is To End It
For Example
One Might Swallow A Bottle Of PILLS Or Slit Wrists
With The Realization That
S/He Could Be Found And Rescued
(Possibly A Failed Attempt)
That Attempt Would Be More Of A Cry For Help
The One That Sucks A Bullet Out Of A Gun Or Hangs
Is More Determined To Die
Realizing That Rescue Is Improbable
Don't Do It

Well it depends on the situation that person was in and how much pain they wanted too endure or not endure. People who committ suicide feel as if there is no one out there for them and they tend to have feelings of great lonliness. They reach a point where they feel like no one cares and that they can't turn to anyone. Someone who does it quickly means they really gave up on themselves. Someone who does it slowly still has an inkling of hope that perhaps someone will find them and save them from completing the act. Its a cry for help. If you know of someone who is contemplating suicide it might be a good idea to refer them to a psychologist or a counselor so they can seek some help.

Maybe it shows whether they were determined to end their life or whether they had some trace of hope that they'd be found, rescued and helped with their problem.
People who shoot themselves in the head don't seem to have any hope left, while maybe some of those who take pills have some hope.
But it probably also has to do with how painful the method is and what is an "easy" way to kill themselves. Many people are afraid of killing themselves, too afraid to pull the trigger for example, while swallowing pills may seem easier to them.
Let's not forget that people who contemplate suicide are seriously ill mentally and while they are in this state of mind they can't think rationally, all they can think about is how to end all this pain. Suicidal people need help. They can be cured of their illness if they seek help or are brought into the hands of medical professionals.

It means they were weak and took the easy way out no matter how they did it - some do it based on what tools are available, some do it out of fear of the pain being to slow...
But they got themsleves to a point where they felt they couldn't talk to anyone or tried to and they didn't listen or just yelled back or blew off whatever they were trying to say..

It shows their fear level regarding their death. Guns are quicker deaths and generally used by people who are scared of pain. Hanging is generally used by people who aren't afraid of suffering and just have suicide on their minds. Cutting is also common and pills.

I think the act of suicide speaks much more than the method used. I think the method is really immaterial in the scope of things.

hmmm, it could mean nothing more than the avaliable devices at the time... there could be much more literal interpretations, but having attempted suicide myself, i didnt think about the method, only what was avaliable, and looking back i cant make any connections between the method and meaning

It means that this person felt the need to draw attention to themselves in the only way they knew how - by killing themselves.
Suicide - It's a permanent solution to a temporary problem.
