May be overwatered. What kind of soil do you have it in? If it’s not a super chunky style mix that allows plenty of air flow and opportunity to dry out… you may be approaching root rot.

On the opposite side… sometimes leaves just get old. If the entire plant is wilting though, without many more details I would assuming overwatering and/or not enough sunlight.

I thought the same thing: over-watered/water logged soil. Gently pull the pot off of the plants root ball. Hopefully you have white, healthy roots and not brown/black mushy roots.
