English term or phrase: I didn’t want to go through it again
Testo teatrale inglese (per la mess­a in scena e non per la pubblicazio­ne). Dialogo tra un uomo e una escort.

A: My parents are not here.
B: What? You came alone from Moldova?
A: We came together but when I was 16 they went back.
B: Oh...And you didn’t want to go back with them?
A: Not at all, I was so traumatized by moving here that I didn’t want to go through it again.

La mia proposta:

[...]
A: ero così traumatizzata per il trasferimento qui che non mi andava di passarci di nuovo.

Cer­co soluzioni migliori. Grazie.

Italian translation:[...] non avrei voluto affrontarne un altro
Explanation:
It si riferisce in maniera ambigua, a mio parere, sia al trauma che al trasferimento. Utilizzando "affrontarne" conserveresti lo stesso effetto dell'originale, dato che trauma e trasferimento reggono entrambi il verbo affrontare.
