My cactus is drooping recently in the last week or so. I think it’s a peanut cactus. Has grown dramatically in the last couple years, but lately has been leaning over. Anyone have any suggestions? Last watered 12 days ago. (Bottom right pic is from 2 years ago, for comparison.) Thanks!

Most likely it is just top heavy or just growing towards the window as all plants do in the presence of a light. So in other words it’s fine and nothing is wrong with it, the fact the other branches are perfectly curling up proves that even more.

Looks like a monkey tail cactus
