Lydia was straight up evil in her past life how did she change so much😭😭😭

The power of regret

She didn’t change all that much. You can still see her past self in her current one, it’s a different side of the same coin

Yes, but it takes so much level of suppression and character development to get to how she is now compared to how she was in the past

Few comments above yours there was a good discussion about it and someone described her behavior and situation perfectly. Basically, a bottom line was that she “changed” cause she saw Lyrica wouldn’t leave her no matter how much she mistreated her, so she’s the only person she can really trust. I agree with that theory, I don’t think it’s a pure hearted change.

Yuh I also lean towards that point, which is why it's still surprising how much she has "changed" or rather has so much "self suppression" in this life yknoww:)
