One option is to find a different outlet to relieve your stress and/or depression with. Instead of eating yourself deeper and deeper into a hole, find a different way to let out your emotions. As mentioned above: watching a movie, spending time with friends, taking a nice, long, relaxing bath, listening to music, reading a book, and exercising are great alternatives. You could also try chewing sugar-free gum, or talking to someone on the phone; anything other than eating. You need to find something that will take your mind off of the stress or depression.
If you need to do some snaking, then be sure to stock up on healthy options, such as vegetables. You could eat carrot sticks all day long and not gain a pound. But, along with keeping healthy options around, you need to get the “sweet stuff” out. Give that leftover hunk of chocolate cake from the party to your friend. This will eliminate any possibility of binging.
Over-eating only adds onto the stress load, so maybe keep a stress-journal or confide in a close friend to concur your cravings. That way, you can keep track of your diet, and get some support while on your journey to change your relationship with food.

excercising helps relieve stress.
if that doesnt work, go see a doctor, it could be an eating disorder
