I've had my mic for about 3 months and it's worked perfectly up until yesterday when people I was talking to on Skype said they couldn't hear me but could hear anything playing on my computer at the time, through further investigation I learned it ONLY picks up things from my speakers in the headphones.

I have no idea what to do at this point.

Nope, they are in their correct ports

Pink is in the pink and green is in the green.
