I've had multifocals for years now. I wear them when out and about. I never could get the hang of bifocals but I adapted to multis well. It could easily be a matter of time for you.
However, with my last prescription I just couldn't see right. They could find nothing wrong with the glasses and gave me another eye check - nothing. In the end they redid my glasses using a different kind of lens (cheaper - they gave me money back) and these are fine. Neither I nor the Optometrist know why those glasses didn't work.
However, for reading at home or for long sessions I use reading glasses. I can't use multifocals comfortably for long sessions, or when not upright.
My husband has multifocals, readers and computer glasses. If you spend a lot of time looking at a computer screen maybe you need glasses specially for that distance. Yes it is a pain swapping but I find the wrong glasses give me neck pains and sometimes dizziness.
Keep trying the multis but they may not be a total solution.
