What do you think is worse?

Question

the anxiety from anticipation of something unknown, or the anxiety from anticipation of something known to make you anxious?

Answer 1

I would think that something unknown would make you more anxious because you are unsure of what that is (causing more anxiety.)

Answer 2

well, here's an example.  when i rode the hotel of horror in orlando, i was nervous because i knew what the ride entailed, so i was anxious.  however, now that i know exactly what it's like, i couldn't do it again, because i know what to expect and i truly don't care to be dropped 13 stories in an elevator in roughly no seconds.  therefore, i say the anxiety from anticipation of something known to make you anxious.
