did you try checking the roots? I’m also new but most people say check the roots for root rot so maybe try that? Also are you watering with tap water?

The roots looked fine , and yes I have

Hydrophobic soil?  
Pot too small?

I would chop it way back. You could propagate stems if you still want to use the pieces you chop

The plant doesn’t have enough leaves to photosynthesize and support those long stems

That’s what’s I was thinking as well

It looks like it needed more light and water. Probably should have been repotted awhile ago to get more roots to support all that growth.

I recommend cutting as suggested:  
\- Cut back to the rim of the pot  
\- Change the soil  
\- Repot to a pot 2 inches wider  
\- Add a grow light to give it 8 hours of bright light  
\- Fertilize every 2 weeks with 50% diluted fertilizer in the warmer months 🍀🪴
