A lot of people struggle with binge eating.  You are so not alone with this.  The challenge of food being a comfort or a coping mechanism, something that releases the chemicals in the brain to make us feel good, but then also dealing with the shame and guilt of the binge is a difficult cycle to cope with.

I had a therapist once tell me that it's okay to start over with the next meal if there is a binge.  That just because there is one binge, that isn't a reason to give up on trying, but rather to restart and give yourself a clean slate. 

Have you checked out any books or website on binge eating?  Walden's Eating Disorder program has a blog post on some tips for coping with binge eating.
