Constantly failing gets exhausting.

For the first time in my life, I feel as though I might never be able to lose the weight.
The addiction to food creates a shift in consciousness that completely takes hold of any self-discipline I might think I have. Constantly failing has become absolutely exhausting. I wake up every morning feel determined, motivated, ready. After binging by mid-day, I'm left wondering where all of the discipline went. I've been consistently gaining weight for the past 3 years now. I've stopped going out, avoid friends and relatives, and have essentially secluded myself from any and all social functions. I've now realized that the reason for this isn't because of the actual weight gain - it's because of the disappointment and plunging self-esteem associated with constantly failing.
Has anyone else felt like this and overcome it? Any advice or motivation would be great. Cheers.
