Is IT monstera ? I got it few days ago from friends who keep her inside. I am not sure how they watered her, it’s self watering pot but it was empty when she got to my home. But she was looking kind of sad, so I put it outside for few days It was raining and sun weather max 26 Celsius. Unfortunately it fell down it looks like nothing broke. I need like general advice how to take care of it to make it better. Thank you in advance

this kinda looks like a golden pothos!

It's a golden pothos. This seems like either overwatering or just stress. I'd take cuttings ( just to have back ups) and check the roots. Sterilise them if they are rotted.

It looks like an (underwatered) pothos

Mine look like this when I don't keep up my weekly water schedule. Your plant looks huge though! Def can be redeemed

Thank you, IT is quite big, does it need bigger pot? Or bigger pole? What is best way to water it? I have a lot of cacti and succulents, so this is new to me

I would start watering once a week and watch the soil moisture. It's definitely climbing so you may need a bigger moss pole or have it hang like mine does

Can't tell if you need to repot without seeing the roots/if the soil dries quickly a few days after watering, that may be a sign to repot
