<human>: Summarize the given text in a few sentences.

I recently got a new job that I really like. My coworkers are great and the job is great. However I've been developing a bad case of anxiety over the past few years. I don't talk to anyone as much anymore so I lost all my social skills.

It's been a week since I worked and I feel bad because I haven't had a conversation with any of my coworkers even though we're standing close to each other for almost 8 hours a day. Any talk we have is work related ("Oh you should do this" "How do I do this?").

I want to break out of this habit but am having trouble doing it. What do I say or do? Wouldn't it be weird for that to start happening? 

How do I approach people that I haven't even talked to yet are always around as well? I feel like the longer I stay in my position, the harder it is to get out.

Any advice would be great. Thanks!
<bot>: New job, used to being a quiet person, have been pretty quiet for the first week of work. Would like to start being social.
