What am I?

For my prefix I received ri. Now I'm insecure.

For my infix I received ul. Now I'm gloomy.

For my suffix I received pe. Now I don't converse in person.

Perhaps the gifts aren't to blame... even without them, my mood changes like the weather.


Example: If my word is hop, the riddle may go like this:

For my prefix I received s. Now I spend. (shop)

For my infix I received o. Now I'm round. (hoop)

For my suffix I received e. Now I have a wish. (hope)
