what part of getting up is negative?

Well, since nobody picked up on it...first of all, it's an.aphrodisiac (I cheated), and secondly, here's the def from Merriam-Webster's:

Main Entry: an·aph·ro·di·si·ac
Pronunciation: "a-"na-fr&-'dE-zE-"ak, -zhE-, -'di-zE-
Function: adjective
Date: 1823
: inhibiting or discouraging sexual desire
- anaphrodisiac noun


See, Helen, there's nothing upgetting about that!
