Is it in bright light? Are you watering when the topsoil is dry? Have you checked for pests? Mine did the same thing. I decided it wasnt worth the stress and cut my losses. These things need more attention than I'm willing to give 😂.

I swear, prayer plants just... Do that sometimes... Mine recovered from the same thing when I put it in a self-watering pot. Maybe try that, or somewhere in the house with a bit more humidity?

Looks like to much water. Change the soil and also mix some perlite in it for the good water draining. Best of luck
