@sanders40 Yes, a little. It is usually followed by a negative expression. For example:
• I got myself really worked up about playing soccer and ended up hurting my friend on accident.
• I got too worked up about the meeting at work and forgot my paperwork at home!
• I became too worked up at the theatre and had to leave before I started crying.

So it has a kind of negative connotation? I should calm down and try to be less excited about it?
