No. Ohio has a law that specifically prohibits assisted suicide. As of the early 1990's no state in the USA has a punitive law on the books for either suicide or attempted suicide.

Is suicide or attempted suicide against the law in Washington?

Suicide is not against the law, as there can be no human punishment for someone who has successfully committed it. Attempted suicide will not bring criminal charges against you, but you will most likely be taken in for psychological evaluation whether you want to be or not, and can be held until they feel you are no longer a threat to yourself or anyone else.....which could be days, weeks, months and sometimes years.
