Are there any "social nootropics"?

I physically can't start conversations, and you can't get much worse than that, so I've been looking for solutions. MDMA seems to give what I need, "increased sociability and feelings of communication being easy or simple". Except I don't want to do MDMA for obvious reasons. However, it was shown to increase oxytocin levels in the blood, so some kind of oxytocin supplement could work, except that it has to be injected or inhaled.

thanks for the backup. In 2012 i was obsessed with this subreddit, ordering and trying almost everything in the nootropics/supplement playbook...mixing potions and tonics, digital milligram scale, cabinet chemistry lab (j/k). Everything had an "effect" yet not sustainable. I am totally grateful for the biochemistry lessons I got here. Sometimes self-help can only get you so far.
