When i went to H.S i went through the same thing. new everything. different from what you're used to. after you get used to the classes and ppl, you will start talking to ppl again. it took me months. Hang in there.
And if you're really desperate, you can randomly go up to a person and talk to them like you've known them forever and maybe even give them a hug. they may think you're weird but hey, everyone is. (if you are wondering, i was joking. the last part, anyway.)

The best thing is to just be yourself find some ppl you have some sort of common ground with and start from there. Dont just throw yourself into friends.. Keep everything on level such as school and friends this way one doesnt over take the other

Extra-curricular activities ... join clubs, get active in volunteerism, go for leadership positions in organizations after you've been there for a while. I was a tremendous introvert but forced myself to interact with others. Don't worry, if you are around the school, people will notice you there and realize you have similar interests. The rest will happen naturally.

Everybody is different, so you are learning about yourself and how you react when in a new environment and meeting new people. Sounds like you're stressed out so you are not being as natural as you know yourself to be.
Work on stress management, make sure you are eating correctly, breathing correctly, exercising, sleeping well.
The rest will come naturally as you discover who you are, but you need to be at your best in times like these.

When you first start highschool as a freshman, you are on the bottom of the high school chain, as you go up in class, you start to socialise more and more, with more people, and you hang out with more people. It is the cruel ways of HS.

Well you know when you move to a different school you get a little shy because you are nervous so just be yourself and you will have a lot of friends if you are at a new school!!
