Need help

Oh honey 💔. First you need to check if it's still alive by scratching the stems with your fingernail. If it is green there's hope! 💚 If it's brown then it's dead and there's no coming back from that.

If it's alive you need to cut off all the dead stems and make sure the soil is well draining. Put it in a spot that gets plenty of sunlight and don't water it until the soil is dry again. Hopefully you will see some new growth. If you do, then it's happy so don't move it. It will throw another tantrum and drop leaves again. Elephant bush plants are very temperamental and don't like to be over or under watered, they don't like temperature changes or low light. When they get upset they start dropping leaves like crazy. I hope it works out for you!
Thank you
