Alexa's publicist had this to say:
Alexa is stable. Her doctors are assessing her needs and that's all we can say at this moment.
Alexa Ray Joel was conscious at St. Vincent’s Hospital, and is expected to survive, said other sources.
There is only speculation as to why she would want to take her own life.
