"discombobulated" means someone has deliberately confused you. Since no one can do the opposite (deliberately unconfuse you) there is no such word. So... if we are all discombobulated, someone is doing it to us, probably Cotty in this case.
There is a dance hall in Nigeria which has a particularly disorienting effect on people who have spent too much time in there on a Saturday night. The word is derived from the name of the dance hall: Disco Mbobu.
I thought it was the coffee they sold there: Disco Mbobu Latte
