Its probably REALLY stressed out or something. Thats the only logical explaination I can think of.

If you have a QT tank, isolate her for a while and she'll probably come around, I agree with supgourami, she's probably stressed. Is she in a tank with other fish? If so, what kind? How long have you had her? Has anything happened that could have caused stress that you know of?
