I was spraying her previously w neem oil because I thought maybe it was a pest/fungal problem but I really donāt know enough to be sure, havenāt done in about a week though and I donāt think Iāve ever fertilized her

The oil could also be blocking it from getting enough oxygen

I recommend looking up common problems for Rubber Plants. I found an article online that listed 16 common problems. But before the list was really great info about them, such as what they like in the wild.

Thank you! I did check for rot and Iāve never experienced it myself so Iām not sure what exactly it is when I have it but some roots came away, some were healthy, I rinsed them off and let them dry before potting into dry soil- which is when I noticed the droop the next day :( Possible fungal infection? Which is what I had thought the neem spray would help but Iām gonna need to do that google search again, thanks for the help!ā¤ļø

Very dark, mushy, or smelly roots are signs of root rot. If it was root rot she might need new soil to get past it. But also she could just be getting herself back together after being cleaned and repotted. If it was definitely root rot youāll want to clean pot, her roots, and give her new soil because the bacteria and fungi are still likely present where she was decaying.
