    As above, 1,5 year old indoor plant in a pot. About 3 feet high.

    Some leaves turn yellow and then fall off, looks like they were cut off right at the stem.

    Too much water? Too little? I read somewhere that this can be normal, is that correct?

    The brown spots are unrelated, they turned up when I didn't water it sufficiently a long time ago.

    The top of the plant looks lush, big leaves and no spots or anything.

    Looks like normal leaf death to me. However, you might want to carefully check the plant for spider mites - you've got what looks a bit like mite damage on some of the leaves.

    Spider mites aren't the end of the world, and they're fairly easy to eradicate.
