I've had my Ficus lyrata for about eight months now, and I'm still figuring out the watering schedule

I've had my Ficus lyrata for about eight months now, and I'm still figuring out the watering schedule. It seems to hate inconsistency—I overwatered it once and got some leaf drop, which was honestly scary. Now I let the soil dry out more between waterings and it's doing much better. Has anyone else struggled with the right balance, or is it just me?
