She did scientifically verify that nothing was wrong with her before coming to this conclusion.
Wasn’t this Wesley’s fault?
when was it not, really?
It was as much her own "fault" as it was Wesley's.
Wes created the little universe bubble she got sucked into, but her own subconscious filled it and made things disappear.
Her subconscious didn't make things disappear, the collapsing bubble did. She bares no blame for this event.
The episode specifically states that this is the case. She'd been chatting with her elderly mentor about old friends dying off and how it's like they never existed, and she'd been mulling this over at the point at which she was sucked into the bubble causing it to manifest.
It's always seemed stupid and jarring to me, but I imagine they added it in to help people understand the concept.
I think we have to listen to the Chief himself…

Except Crusher was right.
"I think, therefore I'm better than literally the entire universe."

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
