Nervously tense or angry (7)
![Ross](/clue/static/ross-mug.min.png)
I believe the answer is:
uptight
This clue is a double definition.
'nervously tense' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'angry' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for uptight that I've seen before include "Tense or angry" , "edgy" , "Nervous, tense, anxious" , "Tensely repressed" , "Tip thug, being nervously tense" .)
