Next time, wait a couple of years

Today, my boyfriend met my parents, siblings, and some other family members. Thirty minutes later, he broke up with me and stormed out, yelling no way was he staying with me because they’re all fucking psychotic. He's my second boyfriend driven away by my family. FML

Unless you are not an adult yet and you live with your parents there is no reason to make it a priority to introduce a new BF to the parents. In the best case that’s a lot of pressure on a new relationship. I would think one bad experience would have clued you into the possibility that your parents/siblings are a problem. Twice absolutely confirms it… OP it’s time to figure out if your family really are that dysfunctional or if something else is going on. I’m betting on a dysfunctional family. Assuming that’s true, it means for your own good getting a job and your own place if you don’t already have that.

Time to go no contact from them when you are able to do so.

Just become a nun and binge-watch "The Munsters."

Move far away and change your number at your first opportunity. Change your name to something like Lois Sanborn or Steve Bennett.

Definitely get out as soon as possible. Start planning. Good chance it won't be the last time.
