I (17m) don’t think it’s because I’m scared to talk with others, but rather, I literally don’t know what to say. Having a conversation for me is like trying to come up with lyrics while I’m freestyling (I’m not good at that either). Every time someone says anything to me, I always just say, “Oh yeah?” or “cool” because I literally don’t know what else to say! Please help this is really affecting my ability to make/maintain friendships.

You can ask them questions about themselves or whatever they’re talking about. It probably seems basic but it shows your paying attention to what they’re saying and people love to talk about themselves.
Ex. If they had a basketball game. Ask them how they did, when was it, where, did they win. (Maybe not the best example, but you get the point).
