1. Establish a new, separate email address. Use an email provider which is different than the one you currently use . . . Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo,Mail.com, etc. Make sure you use a strong password for that new email account and write it down somewhere and keep it in a safe place, in case you forget the password..
2. Open your Facebook account (your current email address + the latest Facebook password you established) and choose Settings.
Edit your Facebook Account Contact email address to the new one you just established and make it your Primary Email Address. Plus remove the email address you previously used as your Primary Email Address.
If you have a cell phone, make sure your cell phone number is provided as an alternate contact.
Save those changes.
3. Then, change your Facebook Password. You should see Security and Login in the left sidebar. Click or tap on that. Follow the on-screen instructions for changing your Password. Make your new Facebook password a strong one. Write it down, along with your new FB login / ID and keep it in a safe location so that you can refer to it if you forget it. Save that change.
4. Log out of your FB account.
5. Log back into your FB account, with the new ID/email address and new Password. NOTE: DO NOT allow your FB login and password to be saved through your browser and other devices. Saving that login information makes it easier for someone else to get into your account.
Only time will tell if the changes you make, as I have described above, will keep out anyone who was logging into your FB account.
Make sure no one else is logged into Facebook on your computer. To log someone else out, click at the top right of your Facebook homepage and select Log Out.
Go to the top of www.facebook.com and enter one of the following: ...

Hmm... someone might have hacked your account. Try checking your inbox from the email provider your Facebook account is associated with. For example, if your email address has a domain name of yahoo.com, then log in to Yahoo, check your inbox. Facebook sends you an email right away if your Facebook account was hacked. The email they send informs you that your email address was replaced with a new one. Then it asks you if that is your own doing, you can just ignore it. But since you suspect someone is using your account, then that person might have replaced your email address with his. If that is the case, then there's an option in that email Facebook sent you to 'let them know' or 'secure your account'. Click on it. If you're successful, you should be able to get hold of your account back. And Facebook system will even prompt you to change your password.
Moral of the story? You should not give any of your email addresses to anyone. Not even to family members, relatives or friends. If the computer you're using is also used by other people and there are no separate user accounts for each [meaning everyone can log into that computer as administrator then one safety tip is to NOT save your password in Mozilla Firefox. If you do and another person who is Internet savvy clicked on the browser's Tools menu [Tools>Options>Security>Saved Passwords] when you're away, then that person can hack your account/s. If you're the owner of the computer and you're sharing it with other people, better create a guest account or user accounts for each person who uses your computer, but make sure you're the administrator of your own computer and that each of you has his/her own password when logging on to the computer.
Only when you are able to login to your Facebook account, you can change the password. If you only forgot the password you can click on I forgot the password on the login screen. Facebook will help you to setup a new password. But when someone has access to the account, and changed not only the password, but also all security settings, sen Facebook can't help you.
On the login page top right you fine a little question, forgot password. Click that line if you can't login because of that reason.
We recommend you to use password reset/ password recovery option for both Google and Facebook accounts. When you attempt to reset your Facebook password, it usually sends a verification mail on the email ID that you may be using as your username while logging in to your Facebook account. Please make sure that you have access to this email account. In case you use your Google email ID as the username for your Facebook account, you need to reset your Google password first and then reset your Facebook password.
To reset your Google password, you can refer to the following Google support page: https://support.google.com/dartsignin/answer/114767?hl=en
Once you have reset your Google password and are able to access the account, you can reset your Facebook password by referring to the following link:

If it let's into his/her account, sign them out first, then delete all cookies, There is a tick Under the Email Field which says Keep Me Logged in, untick it, try logging in again and hopefully this will work. Good Luck
To log out u need to go to the account button on the top right, then click log out. Once u do that it should take you back to the login page where your login information will be saved. Just uncheck the save my password box and have someone else log in.
