Here's my hand [reaching out with my hand] and we can be lonely together.

One of my nice adults wants to tell you that you have every right to feel the way you do--tired, lonely, angry, abused, not cared for, wanting to cry. And that is ok. And she hears you. She suggests giving your self(selves) permission to cry, even if it is only for 10 minutes. Maybe you will, maybe you won't, but you may feel better just by saying that is is ok to cry.
