The sad fact is that they aren't going to always be there, and when they aren't is when it's going to hit you and you'll feel it the most. Keep yourself busy with the things you love doing - you'll get a sense of achievement and also you'll admire the things you finish, which as a result will be admiring yourself more and what you can do in your own time.
It's difficult, and it's very easy to become dependent on others, so it's also important to keep telling yourself that you're not the only one, it doesn't make you any less of a good or normal person. You're human and you can love yourself too.

You can follow the above advice and become dependent on drugs instead. ;)
