If she happens to drag you into an argument, can you say something like:" i will not argue with you so I am going to keep quiet" then walk away and go to your room. Removing yourself from the situation is the only way to deal with this since you live in the same house.
This is why I asked if you could do therapy or had someone to talk to. You need to talk out your feelings and figure out why you feel like you always need to apologize. Part of the collateral damage with abuse is that the abuser makes the abused feel responsible for the behavior. We grow up thinking if we were different or did something "better" or different then everything would change. With an abuser it doesnt matter because they will find a reason to abuse you anyway. Once you are of age I encourage you to find other living arrangements so that you do not have to suffer the abuse day in and day out.

I understand, but i do not have a counsellor at school and have absolutely no one to talk to who could understand the intensity and seriousness of this.
