Get yourself a good planner. Keep all your appointments and obligations in there. Schedule in time for cleaning your room. Make it a point to check your planner so you can keep up to date on what is going on, when it's happening, and what you need to do. It will really help. Then, you just need to make a promise to yourself to stick to it.

If you didn't used to be like this, and now this has suddenly happened, please consider the possibility that there may be something going on in your mind that is affecting your behavior. You might want to speak with a counselor or other mental-health professional for sudden changes in behavior like this. In fact, you might consider going as a family, since obviously there is discord there. Even if this is not a sudden change in your behavior you might benefit from a psychological evaluation.
One thing that has really helped me is to make a rule that I won't make a commitment to do anything unless I am actually looking at my schedule right then and write it down. If someone asks me to do something but I don't have my PDA with my calendar, I'll say, "I think I can probably do it but I don't want to make a commitment right now. Please call me tonight and I'll check my schedule." This has saved me so much hassle because I would often forget appointments and double-book myself.
And forgive yourself. It doesn't matter whether we're perfect. It just matters whether we're headed in the right direction.
Happiness!

You're probably not going to like this, but here goes.
Stop breaking things, arrive on time, stop being rude, stop being untidy, and everybody in your family will stop shouting at you. You make it sound like you're a puppet and you have no control over what you do.
In reality, you're the ONLY one who has control over what you do.

Here it is, the simple fix... but that doesn't mean it's an easy one...
Put others first.
Assume they are more important than you are. This might sound trite, but it will work if you can do it.
I can't say for sure, that this will help you be tidy or clean up your room, but if you assume members of your family paid a lot for something and it's important to them, you are less likely to break it and probably less likely to leave a mess (in it, on it, near it, etc.).
I bet if your able to accomplish this your family will start returning the favors and looking for ways to help you rather than yell at you. I'm the last person to give advice on room cleaning, but this simple life change will help you with the other aspects you are concerned about.
Best of luck.

Get a job.
Seriously, your family critizing you is going to screw you up permanently. Get ready to see a shrink for the rest of your life, or get the hell out of the house.
Watch how your parents will stop you from getting a Job. That will be the proof that your in danger.
