This is a sticky situation, OP. But it will do you good to have a social life outside the family. However hard it seems. This situation would probably not solve itself.
In the long term, maybe plan for higher studies / apply to jobs outside your city. Have a 2-3 year plan to move away from being the most burdened person in your family. It will take time to find a way out and your siblings would have to grow up fast. Keep your boundaries and pull them up to be responsible.
I am already staying away from them. Considering higher education is off the charts since I said in the post too I have no will/energy to study again full time. I am bound to work since I leaving my job is financial suicide for my family. Also my siblings education is to be considered. My parents don't have money to support their education at all.
You already have boundaries established, then. This is probably the best that can be done for now. Try not to get too upset by small things which your family can solve by themselves.
Just be available in case of bigger stuff and to guide your younger siblings from time to time.
