If it were, she wouldn't have given up the suppression potion to the scoobies in the first place. She would have found another way to help them, like telling them what Kenneth was up to.
Instead she calls attention to her hexenbiest spirit by developing this potion to suppress it. She immediately takes the potion to prove that the biest can be suppressed. Yet after that, she never takes steps to develop some kind of magic spell or potion that could rid her of her hexenbiest forever.
So either Adalind figured there was no way out, and she was always going to be terrified of how she thought and felt as a hexenbiest.
Or, she was lying to Rosalee.
Adalind suppressing her powers was the best way to survive in her mind. Juliette was after her and she already knows her powers are no match for Juliette who was just a novice when they had the biest fight. The only way she felt she could ensure her survival was to depower Juliette. Telling the scoobies what Kenneth was up to wouldn't have done that and I'm not sure what Kenneth was doing was at the forefront of her mind unless it involved Juliette coming directly after her.
There was no way of removing her biest spirit. The best thing she could come up with was the suppressant and she was convinced there was no way to remove her spirit. She and Rosalee couldn't come up with anything. They both figured it would be a waste of time plus Adalind still had a baby to take care of so it's not like she could devote all her time to it.
As for what Adalind said to Rosalee, there are people who are lying but there are also people who just give incorrect information. Adalind truly believed what she was saying. She wasn't lying. She was just wrong. We saw that Rosalee is the one that turned out to be correct when she told her that she may be worrying herself too much because she's not the person she used to be.
I think you're misunderstanding my intent when I posed the question about Adalind lying. I'm not criticizing her for doing so, I just believe that she would do anything to fight for herself and her baby. What's a lie in relation to that?
On the other hand, who of us really can state with any certainty that Adalind was wrong? She may have spent the rest of her days terrified of the hexenbiest.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
