I don't believe she was actually trying to go through with it or she would have made sure, i believe it was a cry for help and effectively emotional blackmail to try and convince me not to end the relationship, all it's effectively done though is made me more convinced she's not the one for me..
I heard a similar story when I was at uni from friends of an ex-girlfriend. Several chaps after me she threatened to top herself if her current squeeze left her. I don't think she ever went through with it, but was forever known as Mental Amy amongst my friends.
It sound like you are well out of it. Good luck whatever you decide.

True, I had a gf like that once; she asked me to marry her on a weekend in Paris (she was French) and said she wanted to make lots of little French ‘mich le testers’ with me. I refused, she turned to the absinthe, sent me begging letters which became increasingly threatening and violent, and then (luckily) she fell in love with an 18 stone lesbian.
Bad enough, but attempted suicide must be much worse.
And also, (without wanting to sound harsh) don't hang around trying to make sure she is okay - it will only make things harder for her in the long term. Her friends might well think you're heartless but she'll get over it a lot quicker without you trying to be her friend.
Assuming she self-harmed in some way, don't let yourself be blackmailed into getting back with her. (I'm sure you knew that anyway).
best wishes.

without going into too much detail it seems that she has an unstable mental disposition and on hearing the words "then maybe we should end it then" she seemed to believe she should attempt that literally while I was out of the house which involved gin, wine, a selection of tablets, ammonia and bleach
the doctor says she is stable and I believe she has some counselling scheduled once she has recovered, her friends are now looking after and I think the best thing to do is make a clean break..
EDIT: the argument was over the amount of time i spend away with work and as a consequence of her actions I spent up until this morning back in the uk sorting out this mess.. thank god i dont have a manager that i need to explain this too..
they had a row about who gets the toaster.
Chef caught her with a left and she responded with a knee. He dodged astutely, showing some mighty footwork, then jabbed her in the throat with a right.
As she fell, groaning, he nutted her then followed up with the boot
broke up with gf chef (it'd been on the cards for a while), she took it so well i then spent all day sunday finding out her condition at the local A&E..
