i know this sounds difficult but if you want to talk to someone, you only need to approach that person and start talking. people don't know what you are thinking and what you want so you need to speak up.
for example, suppose you are in class and the person you want to talk to is next to you. in that case, you can start a casual conversation like "ugh i really dislike this teacher/i really like this teacher", or "this homework is too difficult/too easy" or just anything related and then ask "what about you?"
the only way to gain social skills it's talking to people! trust me, i may sound like an oldie but when i was your age i was just like you. i didn't talk to anyone except to one or two friends i had and people made fun of me. i can recommend you things that worked for me but you need to find your own way. just know staying in home alone and not going outside it's not going to change anything and it will only make you feel worse. i know you can do it and i believe in you!

I'm no expert but if you are looking to make friends at school I think the easiest thing is to just ask people about homework or to talk about your teachers. if you are struggling to talk I get that this can be challenging but practice makes perfect so by trying to get in contact with people it will be much easier to make new friends :) if I were you I would start of by maybe asking someone from my class about the homework or say something along the lines of "this teachers class is so boring" or "don't you think we get a lot of homework?" or "did you hear what the teacher said yesterday?" or "I have trouble understanding this could you explain it to me?"

apparently if you ask people for a favour/ ask people to help you, you psychologically trick them into thinking they like you idk I heard that somewhere

good luck dont give up and believe in yourself :)
