I think that you have a lot of agency over how you live your life and what you do, which has a huge impact on your happiness.
There is no general answer here, just try to do more things that you know are good for you and make you happy. Eat healthier, stay reasonably fit, get a good and consistent sleep cycle (this has a huge hormonal impact on your happiness). Enjoy good art, make meaningful connections, if you are angry about the state of the world, try to revolt.
Every miserable person I know endlessly complaints how they don’t have control over things. Even when they do. They just convince themselves that have no other choices and their misery becomes their identity.
