Help! I have a False Aralia 'Bianca' and it's just melting and melting I'm not sure she can even be saved anymore! Tips? Do I just toss in the bin? What it looks like now vs when I got it

How long have you had it? Does the pot have drain holes? How often are you watering it?

I got her Feb 23rd and just a week or two ago put her in a pot with drainage and proper soil but it's doing even worse its just Ben constantly melting since I got it

It could be she was getting root rot from the original pot and the stress of transplanting has been very stressful. I would just give it a little time to adjust and it might come back. Make sure it has enough humidity also depending on where you live this can be a problem.

I mist and water per planta and she's been repotted into better soil should I just cut her back and hope for the best? The roots seemed fine when I repotted and now she has drainage I thought she'd be so much happier :(

Yes, I would just cut it back, give it more time and hope for the best.

My false aralia is my favorite plant but it actually took me three tries to get one to take off. The first two times, they just started keeling over one day and I have NO idea why.

Droopy leaves sounds like overwatering; make sure your pot isn't too large and let it dry out thoroughly before you water again. Also, it looks like you have it under a grow light; keep it in somewhat darker conditions until it recovers, and if it seems happy there leave it--I think false aralias like it shadier than people think.
