  Grammatical mood - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Grammatical mood per se is not the same thing as grammatical tense or grammatical aspect, although these concepts are conflated to some degree in many languages, including English and most other modern Indo-European languages, insofar as the same word patterns are used to express more than one of these concepts at the same time.
The conditional mood does not express uncertainty; this is a distinct mood, the potential mood, which is expressed with the words "probably" or "may" in English.
The presumptive mood is used in Romanian to express presupposition or hypothesis regarding the fact denoted by the verb, as well as other more or less similar attitudes: doubt, curiosity, concern, condition, indifference, inevitability.

 Howstuffworks "How do mood rings work?"
While mood rings cannot reflect your mood with any real scientific accuracy, they actually are indicators of your body's involuntary physical reaction to your emotional state.
The stone in a mood ring is either a hollow glass shell filled with thermotropic liquid crystals, or a clear glass stone sitting on top of a thin sheet of liquid crystals (see How LCDs Work for lots of details on liquid crystals).
The inside of the ring conducts heat from your finger to the liquid crystals in the "stone." The color green, which signifies "average" on the mood ring color scale, is calibrated to the surface temperature of a typical person, approximately 82 degrees Fahrenheit (28 degrees Celsius).

 mood
Bipolar disorder is a severe, debilitating mood disorder characterized by periods of expansive, irritable, or grandiose moods, usually followed by an episode of major depression, then an intervening period of normalcy lasting several months or years until the next relapse.
Antihistamines may also be helpful as hypnotics (to help the patient sleep) or for the agitated patient who for whatever reason should not be treated with benzodiazepines (such as the substance-abusing patient where you wish to minimize the risk of relapse).
It is conceivable that a patient maybe started on a mood stabilizer, such as lithium, an antidepressant such as Prozac, a benzodiazepine such as lorazepam, and an antipsychotic such as Risperidone all at the same time (although initiation of the fluoxetine could probably wait until stabilization of the mania).
