Hey there,
I was translating one thing into English when I came across a joke which in Russian sounds like "Oh my Gosh, life's been so hectic lately that I've been having no time to suffer"
I'm not sure about 3 things here though
1. The verb "to suffer" - Does it make the phrase sound like the girl is talking about how emotional she usually is, but now having no time to think about her emotions?
"to suffer" sounds more like physical pain to me, not heartache or anguish. So maybe I should translate it as something like "Oh my Gosh, life's been so hectic lately that I've been having no time to think about/suffer from misery of life ", but it seems to drive us into a different direction. I mean it makes me think about common misery of life, but not about the girl's masochistic tendency to submerge herself into strong and dark emotions :D
So how would you put it? Any other options? Or maybe "suffer" is okay here?
2. I'm not sure about "have been having no time..." in the second part of the sentence. "Have been having" seems to be a little too much :D Is there any other grammatical tense I can use and still make it sound good?
3. Does it sound like a joke when translated into English at all? :D
Many thanks in advance!
