Not an expert on this…however, you can try tying it to a post to see if it stands up, or it may stand up on its own after a few days from when you watered it. Lastly, you can cut the leaves off, then wait for new growth, which may happen now or in the spring…
Also… the plant maybe too close to the window… if it’s really cold outside and there is a draft from the window, plants could wilt. I recommend moving it a few feet back from the window, but still close enough to get enough sun from the window it’s at. Plants don’t like sudden changes in temperatures. For example: poinsettias wilt when the there is a sudden temperature change.
These are some ideas!
I hope this helps!
Good Luck!
