Well first off, I would check ever roots for root rot, that self watering system is usually a culprit. Also how much sun do you get on the balcony?

Part sun but very humid

I think it’s a small pot for root , I’ve seen cactus shrivel up like this.

Might want to transfer to a big pot if your birthday gift is old

with less water

I think you should try to self water it sometime and see if the plant is looking any better
