What's the situation?
Ever feel like you're buzzing with nervous energy, or maybe a friend just can't seem to relax? 😬 This expression is perfect for describing someone (or yourself!) who is easily stressed, anxious, or just a bit too wired. It's often about a personality trait, but can also describe a temporary state due to circumstances.
