You were social in the beginning of high school... how old are you now? Out of high school? Sometimes people just change. Social anxiety may be an issue for you that you could work on but maybe you weren't as extroverted a you thought you were. Just a well adjusted introvert who now is feeling not so well adjusted.

I think you could benefit from simply getting more comfortable with yourself, what you want out of life and what kind of world you want to create for yourself. When you start to figure those things out maybe you'll be able to find places & people to be comfortable around. Your problem with socializing seems kind of like you just have a disconnect with the world, like you have a mental block that's not allowing you to put yourself out there. Who cares if they don't care about what you talk about or don't pay attention? The world is full of people who aren't compatible with each other, it's not a big deal, the ones who matter will come along eventually.

You seem like a very interesting person who's probably pretty easy to get along with. How did you get started practicing Poi? I've been interested in that but don't know where to start.

I got started a few years back by buying a 4$ set of shoe laces and glowsticks (Still the best for me). Poi is like meditation to me, as it seems it's the only time my mind doesn't have noise.

I know I can talk to people. But there's a little voice in my head criticizing me like "Why are you putting on such an act ? " or "This isn't you talking, you're past bullshit like this." . It's like an ego trip I don't want .
