Default She can't bear 'with' it anymore.

I'm having problems with the 'with' in this sentence.

She can't bear 'with' it anymore.

It sounds awkward to me, but I wanted some other opinions. If I change the pronoun to the actual noun, it seems less awkward.

She can't bear with the sorrow anymore.

but in either case I'd probably cross out the 'with'. What do you think?
