How is the soil?

I made a soil mix of 1 part orchid bark 1 part all purpose soil and 1 part pearlite

Ohh you repotted it? Were the roots good?  
I think you have to wait it out. I noticed that when I repotted, I had some plants that looked like they were dying but they bounced back!  
I even had this success with root rotted plants and was so sure they were going to die. Keep an eye for new growth! Careful with water because my BOP died so fast with not even that much water 😂 and they will still look very healthy while rotting below soil!
