I’ve bought this monstera around December and repotted it in February. Since halfway march it started drooping. It has enough light as it is next to a window. At the end of march I bought things to hold it upright, but it’s still drooping.
I’ve had some yellow leaves here and there, so I cut back how much water I gave it. And I know it not the best soil, but there aren’t any plant shops nearby where I live. She’s my baby and I want to see her thrive. So please give me your brutal and honest advice.

Check the roots
Don’t be embarrassed… yes, the plant is showing some signs of stress.. but look at the fenestrations on that leaf to the right of the photo.. that’s a good sign. Some plants way bigger than this have little to none because they’re under even more stress than yours.. these plants don’t like a strict watering schedule.. only water them when soil is dry 2-3 inches down. If this were my plant, I would inspect the roots, get a quality aerated soil blend, and then repot it to a pot slightly bigger. Overall, the plant is nice and green. You can get quality soils on Amazon and other sites online. Just needs some adjusting, and it can thrive! Oh, and you might want to consider getting it some climbing support like a moss pole.. it’s extremely beneficial..
