I'm sorry you feel this way but remember that sometimes we all go through bad phases where we feel alone and unloved. I think you just need to get some things straight though; why are you with your boyfriend if he didn't even buy you a present?
I'm not saying that a present is very important, because it's not... but you said that he spent money on video games for himself, that simply means that he's so selfish!! IF I were you, I'd think twice about continuing a relationship with such a self-centered person like he seems. you're doing a good thing by helping out your mum.
Now, regarding your sister, is your sister old enough to pay her own debts? If she's an adult, then she must be the one paying her own debts. I think you're biting off more than you can chew. It's good that you're helping out other people (like mum/sister/boyfriend) but I think you need to put yourself first and think of what you can do to improve your life.
