Drooping/Curling Leaves

#Sedum I'm not sure exactly what type of Stonecrop I have as it was a gift, but I've noticed some of the low leaves are plump but some in the middle are thin and drooping/curling. I'm trying to work out if it's too much/too little water or maybe if it's sunlight? I've currently taken it out of direct sunlight just in case.
4” pot without drainage

Welcome to Greg Lilli
I noticed your plant card states that your plant is in a pot without drainage. This can cause water to sit in the bottom of the pot and then plant stays too wet and your could end up with root rot.
I highly recommend putting it up in a pot with good drainage holes.
Hope this helps

it looks like it could use more sun, i know you had it in direct light but maybe a south or west window would be a better option :) agree with sarah on the drainage issue too, and maybe you could get a pot that’s one size smaller? it looks pretty big for the plant
I think this plant’s main issue is lack of light. Succulents in general need massive amounts of direct light, the more the better. This plant is etiolating, or stretching, because it is not getting enough light. That will make its growth weak and eventually lead to other problems. It needs a south facing window, and to be sitting directly next to the window. More light should start it down a path to stronger growth.
