Y’all I am so confused. It’s growing and dying at the same time. 🙃

I got this from a nursery in Feb and it was infested with bugs in the roots. Had some heavy trauma with cleaning it and repotting. Since then it’s been a steady pattern of dying and growing. Trying to be patient because I understand it’s trauma but does anyone have an idea of what’s going on?? And how to make it comfortable??

keep a steady environment with its watering/ sunlight schedule and wait it out!! What kind of plant is it? What’s your care schedule like? What kind of soil mix is it potted in?

Looks like an Alocasia, I overwatered mine last summer and now I let it dry out a lot. It’s thriving now, let me find some pics

This was November last year, after a summer of overwatering
