Uff the amount of times I've said that phrase... But NC is definitely going to happen at some point

Already in therapy, and yes this is exactly what my therapist has said to me before. But since I'm a broke uni student still need the $$ from the fam

Ugh... You're right, I feel like I'm just lying to myself thinking there's a way to mediate this

She's super picky about what words I use... I just think if I say 'not welcome' she will somehow either use that against me or make it an even bigger problem. Honestly I couldn't care less about being on the call or not

I mean I will tell her that I just need help phrasing it differently... More polite...

I still rely on them financially as I am in university so I can't mess up... Other wise things will get a bit difficult for me. It's best if I stay on good terms

I know this sounds exactly like what I should do, it just wouldn't go over very well. Think if it as if I need to speak in work language.

School only provides unpaid internships. And I don't really have time to work as my uni is a bit different than most and I'm usually at uni from 8am to 8pm mon-sat. I don't have insurance but I do pay for health care through the student union.
