My Cretan Brake was doing great for a while (I got it around couple of months ago) and then its leaves started to dry out… now there are only three set of leaves that are still healthy looking. Am I over watering it? I thought it was getting the right amount of sun. But I’m not entirely sure what care it needs.

I am assuming it’s a lack of a humidity
