What I've heard is that if you are out of status for up to 6 months you will be banned for 3 years from entering US and if you cross 6 months you will be banned for 10 years. I know somebody who was in similar situation. He went back home and applied for visa. He had some genuine reason (due to the misake of the officer at POE) so the visa officer recommended to department of homeland security or USCIS (I'm not sure) himself for the waiver so he got the waiver and came back. I'm not trying to discourage you, but to me it seems you are in a difficult situation unless you give some credible reason to the officer at the embassy.
Good Luck
