In a tizzy, I get data mixed up (8)

I believe the answer is:
agitated
'mixed up' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both to do with contact as well as being past participle verbs.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'in a tizzy i get data' is the wordplay.
'in a tizzy' indicates anagramming the letters (being in a tizzy is being confused).
'i'+'get'+'data'='igetdata'
'igetdata' is an anagram of 'AGITATED'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for agitated that I've seen before include "Het up" , "Unsettled" , "Worked up, flustered" , "caused a stir" , "seven [DISTRAUGHT]" .)
