I agree with the poster who suggested seeking student counseling because if you're struggling this much to make friends, you could use help. You will struggle mightily with a job search post-college if you're having this much trouble trying to join a campus organization.
Joining a campus group is similar to a job search - what do you like and what are you good at? Pursue your interests, whether it's arts, volunteering with specific populations, religious or political groups, student gov't, etc. College is chock full of groups, go look on your college website.
The question I quoted is why posters are becoming frustrated with you, you're asking things that only you know and things that should be apparent such as your question about how to get involved in a org. How? Show up to meetings, do whatever activities that org does, etc. I sincerely suggest you get help so you can enjoy your last year of college and, more importantly, be able to secure and hold a job.
