estado de ánimo

Don't laugh, guys, this is one of the things we take for granted, but I'd really appreciate a good translation for the "estado de ánimo" of a patient upon being submitted to the effects of a drug. (Besides animic state).

state (or frame) of mind
This is the term most commonly used in English. This one always pops up when patients' rights are involved (eg, requesting to be taken off life support, etc.).

lethargic [anemic state]
I've often come across the above expression in medical journals (ie. lethargic anemic state).
"lethargic" seems to encompass "estado de ánimo" + "anemic state"
"lethargic" seems to encompass "estado de ánimo" + "anemic state"

Let's not get confused....
I agree with the previous suggestions "mood" and "state/frame of mind". You may also use "affect", particularly in reference to the mental sphere potentially altered by drugs.
Now, "animic" and "anemic" are 2 different words. The first translates as "anímico" or "de ánimo". The second translates as "anémico", i.e., low red cell count in blood.
"Lethargic" translates as "letárgico" o "estuporoso", and it's a specific type of mental state; it's not a translation for "estado de ánimo".
