My peace lily wilted overnight after I moved it to a north-facing window in my apartment

I thought more light would help but instead it shocked the leaves and dropped them all, so I moved it back to the east sill and gave it a deep soak and now it's bouncing back, has anyone else had a plant throw a fit over a simple relocation?

Ugh honestly plants are such drama queens sometimes. I swear my snake plant gave me the silent treatment for a week just because I rotated its pot a few inches to the left. Peace lilies especially act like you ripped them out of the earth and threw them into a volcano if you move them more than two feet. Glad yours is bouncing back though, they love to fake you out with the dramatic wilt but then perk right up after a good drink.

Blame it on being a creature of habit, same way my cat acts like I've betrayed her if I move her food bowl six inches to the left. Plants and people both just want things to stay where they left them.
