Daughters first holiday with dad since seperation

Hi everyone
think I just need a bit of moral support. Daughter 13 has gone on holidays with her dad for two weeks for the first time since our seperation and I’m really struggling 😔
I miss her so much and can’t help but have horrible thoughts of her loving her dad more than me and that she just has a better time with him etc. Until our settlement comes through I can’t afford to take her away so I feel guilty and really sad. I’ve messaged her but only get very short answers which I guess is just her being a teenager but it makes me anxious ( I do struggle with anxiety anyway)
can anyone just give me a little hand hold 😥

Two weeks is tough! That’s a long time. She’ll be fine but you will always be her mum and she will always want and love you. I message dd when she’s not with me but it’s silly memes that don’t necessarily need a reply. But enough so she knows I’m thinking of her.

Oh that’s tough. Can you find some fun things for you to do? I do creative courses and big walks that I can’t if I have dc.
