Unity: Player jumps fine, but falls extremly slow

I am currently building a little 2D platformer with a character that can jump. This is how the jumping looks (FixedUpdate):

    if (jump)
    {

        if (isGrounded)
        {
            isGrounded = false;

            rb.AddForce(Vector2.up * (jumpHeight * counterForJumpHeight) * Time.deltaTime, ForceMode2D.Impulse);
            jump = false;

            anim.SetBool("bool_anim_isJumping", true);
        }

        if (timer != null)
            timer.Stop();

        counterForJumpHeight = jumpMulitMin;

        jumpAlreadCharging = false;

    }

Looks perfect for every jump up and then falling back down.

HOWEVER: when the player JUST falls (like off a cliff oder something) without a jump it looks like he has the mass of a leaf. Sailing to the ground extremley slowly. Not accelerating at all. Just falling as in slow motion. Of course I can up the gravity, but that also affects the falling AFTER my jump and makes him look like a stone. As if the falling is sped up or something. But that doesnt make sense. Him falling AFTER a jump and him just falling off of something SHOULD look the same, right? But it doesnt.

These are my values for the RB:

YOu can either up your player's rigidbody Mass, or increase gravity in edit/projectsettings/ physics

I'm not 100% sure but this may have to do with the collision detection. Try changing the setting to continuous dynamic instead of discrete.

It can be a problem with the animator, if the animation contains changes to Rigidbody, it does weird stuff if you have set the Make Default in animation.

it was all my fault, there was no way of guessing it from your point of view. Everything the player could jump from was tagged with "can_jump".

void OnCollisionEnter2D(Collision2D col)
{
    if (col.gameObject.tag == "can_jump") // detect collision with ground game object 
    {
        isGrounded = true;
        deacceleratePerFrame = 1.5f;
        anim.SetBool("bool_anim_isJumping", false);
    }

}

This includes all edges. Removing this means I cannot jump atm anymore, however this caused the issue. I sure find another way :-) thank you all
