Sometimes you just can't help it. Sometimes "trying" isn't trying hard enough. It can be really hard to make friends if you're not outgoing and/or very shy/anxious. Does that mean you're not trying? No, but people will say that. Some people just naturally have it less easy than others. And it does eventually get to a depressing point that feels hopeless. Then you end up doing "nothing" because you just don't know what to do or you're completely just not confident about the options. Other people are stuck with situations they just can't do anything about (sick family members, deaths in the family, extreme bullying, etc.)
Yes, there are almost always shreds of happiness to be found. Unfortunately, sometimes it's hard to focus on them when they're outnumbered by unhappy things by 2 to 1. But it is best to focus on them and make the best of things.
