worked-up
In a state
Worked-up describes a state of emotional agitation or excitement.
Someone who is worked-up has become upset, anxious, or agitated about something: Don't get so worked-up over a parking ticket.
The term implies the emotion has built up rather than appeared suddenly—you work yourself up into a state.
