Retrieve lost facebook Password
I forgot my Facebook password and email password. How can I log into Facebook?

You may be able to get back into your Facebook account by answering a security question, using an alternate email address listed on your account or getting help from friends. Keep in mind that you'll only see these options if you set them up.
To see if you have these options:
Go to the Facebook login page and click Forgot your account? or Can't login? in the top right.
Fill out the form to identify your account.
Select I forgot my account on the next page if prompted.
Look at the list of email addresses listed on your account. If you don't have access to any of these, click No longer have access to these?
Follow the instructions provided to answer your security question or get help from friends, if you see these options, or contact your email service provider.
Once you get back into your account you can change your login email address at any time from your account settings.

That is a rather unfortunate situation you're finding yourself in. In the case you still have access to the email address you signed up with, but you don't remember which one you used at the time, the Facebook help page suggest the following actions:
Ask one of your Facebook friends to look at the About section of your profile and send you the email address listed in the Contact Information section.
Try entering every email address or mobile number you've owned (one at a time). You may have added an email address or mobile number to your account and forgotten about it.
Enter your username. Your username is your personalized Facebook URL:
If you don't know your username, ask a friend to go to your profile and send you the username in the URL.
Try entering variations of your name, just in case you signed up using a nickname.

If indeed you have no access to you email address either, perhaps because you signed up with Facebook using a 10 Minute Mail email address, or something similar, you have a bigger problem, but it's not impossible, if you have set some of your friends to be 'Trusted Contacts".
From the relevant help page:
If you're locked out of your account, you can use trusted contacts to get access to your account. If you have trusted contacts set up:
Click Forgot your password? and find your account.
Follow the instructions to use your trusted contacts to get back into your account.
You'll receive a set of instructions that includes a URL. The URL contains a special security code that only your trusted contacts can access. Call your friends and give them the URL so that they can open the link and give the security code to you.
Use the security codes from your friends to access your account.
If you don't have trusted contacts set up, learn how.
Please be sure to call your friends or talk to them in person. If your account was hacked, the hacker could have access to your emails as well.
