Help! I repotted this guy 12 days ago \& put a cacti/succulent soil in and now the leaves are falling off and it’s dying. What should I do to save it?

Did you keep any of the original soil? In my experience, if you completely take off all the old soil it has a harder time adjusting.

I did mix a little bit in with the new soil

be careful with watering i say. looks rly goopy and that might be bc of to much water or the soil doesn’t have enough texture so it can’t drain properly and it holding to much water in it (idk the word i’m looking for but like perlite,pebbles, bark,etc..)

i would just let it dry out completely before next watering
