I think it was just crossing the town-line rather than an illness. Also, the "illness" storyline would be much too similar to the storyline on Lost in which the Man in Black infected the island's inhabitants and changed their personalities/memories. I don't think the writers would so blatantly copy a storyline from one of their other shows. I think Utter Solitude meant that her cursed self could have some mental illness to begin with, and not that it's her only self it's manifesting and that's all.

On a side note, I don't really know how that stuff works, but perhaps it could be all the elements Sage of Earth mentioned plus the psychiatric medication she's being given. Perhaps when the effect wears off it makes her emotionally unstable? Plus, don't forget not even 24 hours have passed since the accident, it's an awfully short time to deal with such stress.
