I reduced my social anxiety drastically

[userrrr]

But this made feel dumber somehow. Like my thought process was impaired by adjusting it to make me more social

Interesting. I am not the only one who had it

This happened to me too.

I was a child mathematical prodigy and but knd of autistic. Now i have better social skills (still bad) but by intelligence took a hit

Teach me your ways.

The only way I reduce it is not go outside... every time I do there will be at least one person staring or joking about me (to the person they're with), they'll point at me and say something like wtf does he look like or even "what is that" (happened today), young people did it. I feel so sad now. And after staying inside (only my mom is ever around), I didn't feel sad but such things always bring me down. When it happens I always feel like crying.

I'm trying something similar. Rather than focus on the negative, focus on the positive aspects of socializing.

It is likely that the mental strain of trying to be more social is causing you to experience burnout. A similar phenomenon occurs when autistics try to mask.
