Apprehensive, worried (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

anxious

nervous

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'apprehensive' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'worried' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for nervous that I've seen before include "Worried, apprehensive" , "'Apprehensive, uneasy (7)'" , "Easily alarmed" , "Twitchy" , "Agitated - excitable" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and the Sydney Morning Herald.
