so i’ve had this makoyana for about 4 months. recently she was super rootbound & growing through her nursery pot so she was repotted last wednesday. right before repotting i also moved! so she’s in a whole new house, lighting situation, etc. anyway she’s starting to look super bad off and i’m concerned. she’s not praying like she normally does & a lot of her leaves are bending down & browning. the back of her leaves are sticky & the tops seem dry. 🆘

I’m pretty sure you’ve got spider mites
It’s really hard to see but if you zoom in on the first photo you can see the webs and the specks. Get out a flashlight and check your plant with a magnifying glass if you have one. You’re looking for tiny (seriously, less than 1mm), slow moving specks on webs.
If you do see them get an insecticidal soap spray (look for potassium salts of fatty acids), bring the plant to the bathtub/shower, and spray every surface of it. Top and underside of each leaf, stems, the whole shebang. Drench it. Do that every few days/once a week for a few weeks.
Check all your plants.
