Most of the time when a Cyclamen's leaves wilt, or droop, it is a watering issue. Only water when the potting mix or soil is starting to dry out slightly. Water in the morning, and avoid overhead watering - you can do this by using a watering can that has a long and thin spout, or by sitting the pot in a saucer of water and then removing it after an hour or so.
Cyclamens are sometimes attacked by Mites and Thrips; and are sometimes infected by Root Rot diseases, Grey Mould and Powdery Mildew.
