I’ve had this aloe for years, but I neglected her while my mental health wasn’t up. I’d like to see her thrive as she always has, again. She’s leaning, bent, and browning. She’s still growing upwards beautifully. I’ve only ever cut her back a couple stems since I’ve had her. Outside of repotting (hoping this will provide support to stand tall), any suggestions?  
Thank you in advance!

Does that pot have drainage holes?

It did not

I’m glad you are feeling better. Plants can wait.❤️ maybe needs more water? See how fast it sucks up the water from the dirt and if it’s in a day, water it again. See if it plumps up any after it sucks up that first watering.

What kind of aloe? I don’t see it in your profile.
