wilting after repotting

Help! I repotted my fittonia yesterday and its been wilting since. I repotted outside but brought it back in after, watered it. The reason I repotted was because I have fungus gnats problem so I watered it with diluted hydrogen peroxide. Could that be the cause?

The plant appears to be suffering from a lack of nutrition and hydration. This can be due to various reasons such as overwatering or poor soil quality. Here are some steps to fix the issue: 1. Repot the plant in well-draining soil with a mix of organic matter, such as compost or vermiculite. 2. Adjust the watering schedule to ensure that the plant is not overwatered or underwatered. A good rule of thumb is to water when the soil feels dry to the touch, but before it becomes completely dry. 3. Provide the plant with enough light, preferably bright, indirect sunlight. 4. Fertilize the plant with a balanced fertilizer (20-20-20) once a month during the growing season. 5. Prune the plant regularly to promote bushy growth and prevent it from becoming leggy. By following these steps, you should be able to improve the health and appearance of your fittonia plant.

Need water

Ive used hydrogen peroxide spray on roots after trimming root rot but Ive never actually watered with it before. It could be the cause but it could also be transplant shock. Keep up with regular care and it should perk up within a few weeks.
