    have you noticed if the water is pouring straight through the soil? the soil could be hydrophobic and it could be time for a repot. peace lilies are so dramatic but almost always bounce back after a little TLC. :)

    Is it possible that it experienced a draft? I had a plant once that did this when it got too cold.

    If the soil has become hydrophobic, you’ll want to do a deep soak for a while to let the soil fully absorb enough water again. If you do that and it still doesn’t perk back up, I’d wonder about the roots, like maybe it’s too root bound or has some dead roots that can’t soak up the moisture anymore or something? If it’s been a while since you last repotted it, it might be time to repot.
