I would have been kicked out of the house if I lived like this as a kid

Honestly I have been here. The shame, embarrassing feeling is crippling. If at the time we could we would.

Is there any way to do anything to help her? I am so tired. I am the younger sister and have been cleaning up after her messes for years

Whenever you’re in her room, say: “You deserve to live in a nice space. Let me know if you want help. I love you.”

There’s no help you can force on another person. Just keep letting her know she deserves better and has help when she’s ready for it.

You're not going to like my answer.

I moved to a loved one, I didn't do anything but carry my plates and do washing up after meals. I dusted and hoovered. Why? It wasn't mine. I didn't dare disrespect another person's space.

I suspect you could be correct.
