Mine looked like that lumpy and droopy. I put it under a grow light and much improvement.

Did you repot it? Does it have drainage holes? If yes to both then its just in shock. It needs drainage holes so hope you have that..

I cut five drainage holes and I did repot it (i got it in this small plastic bucket that was way too big for it and had no holes. I’m also looking for a more permanent pot for it

It looks like it may have been overwatered. Make sure to let the soil dry out before water again
