It's unfortunate that this begins with talking to your coworkers. I'm more or less incapable of making small talk. It's painful. I tried, but it was... Well it was grossly unsuccessful.

I can relate, but my coworkers are so chatty that they can hold the conversation for the both of us and I'm usually just along for the ride. It's very uncomfortable for me but I value a healthy work environment so I hear them out all the time. I wouldn't be in the know otherwise so it's quite valuable.
True. I don't ignore them or anything, I'm just not good at being social.
