Post a picture of your set up. What is the water temperature? What type of bulbs are you using?
but I'm worried that I'm doing something wrong since I've no clue what's wrong with her and what to do and not do
Like Tom said, please post some pictures of the tank setup and the turtle so we can help you. We need to know more details of the species of turtle and how she is kept. Thanks. Can the turtle get out of the water and bask?
The turtle needs to either live in a pond, or a large aquarium. They swim, not just walk along the bottom in shallow water. Swimming helps them keep the digestive tract moving. The turtle needs to be able to climb out of the DEEP water onto a basking platform to sit under a light and warm up. Please read this:
thank u so much will do all that, do I need to buy her a bigger tank? this is the one she lives in rn
Yes, that's much too small.
how big should I go?
