Hi!! I have 2 of these and don't know what I'm doing. It...

#Dracaena
Hello, Aimee @SatisfiedOrpine it's always easier to provide feedback when you post a photo of the plant to know what could be happening with your plant as it's takes three ingredients to most plants to do well: light, water and temperature. It can go deeper if you take into consideration fertilizer, soil and so on.
A community of people who are ready to help is here, but you need to help by providing more information.
Please don't get upset, only trying to clarify my point.

Otherwise it would sound a bit like the following anecdote (d. doctor; p. for patient) : A patient walks into the doctor's office, grimacing in pain and holding his stomach.
p.: "doctor, it's hurts all over! My head, my back, my legs... everything! What should I do?"
d.: takes a look and asks: "let me get this straight. You're in pain everywhere?"
p.: nods dramatically
d.: "alright, first thing first. Can you touch your nose with your finger?"
p.: hesitates, then slowly raises his finger to touch his nose, wincing slightly.
d.: "good! Now can you touch your toes?"
p.: bends down, grunting with discomfort, and manages to touch the toes.
d.: smiles "Well, congrats! You've got the "I'm-not-a-doctor" syndrome, and it looks like it's working wonders for you!"
p.: looks puzzled
d.: "See, if you weren't feeling any pain at all, you wouldn't have come to me. But you're still got some mobility left, so there is hope!"
p.: a bit amused now, "wait, you're telling me this is all in my head?"
d.: "no, no... I'm just saying, it's more of a 'head-to-toe' condition! We fix that, one step at a time!"
p.: chuckes, "you're a funny, doc!"
d.: "well, laughter's the best medicine - except when it comes to physical pain, in which case, we'll stick to the prescriptions."
I have a Dracaena too. Please submit photos of your plant, plus add a plant card detailing your Dracaena. It’s also good to hashtag many groups on this site, to help you too. I hope this helps. #Dracaena #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy
