Is a bedroom a bedroom without a closet?
If there's a bed in the room it makes it a bedroom not to much of a debate there. Not all bedrooms have a closet.
How does condensation affect a false ceiling?
Condensation can form for the same reasons it does on windows, if one side is colder than the other.
Condensation in extreme cases can make a false ceiling wet and soggy.
In mild cases it just tends to increase the chance of sagging as the moisture absorbed often makes the material less rigid and sturdy so it doesn't stay in place perfectly.
There is also the risk of mold and mildew growth if the area remains perpetually wet all the time.
To prevent this, most false ceilings include adequate ventilation and air circulation to prevent moisture build up in a localized area.

What to do about tongue and groove paneling shrinkage?
Wow.... how old is your tongue & groove--
to be honest this would not be a job for a novice.
this job may involve taking all of the slabs off from that side of the wall and re-using them because this would be the easiest way to remedy the problem.
T & G has a Tongue on one side and a Groove on the other side.
When I do T & G I usually start with the "Tongue" facing left.. so when I place my last piece; my last piece may have a groove on the right side flushing into the wall on my right---but sometimes the slab has to be ripped down because the original slab is 4 inches wide but your last space to be filled was only 3 inches wide---and so the right side of that last piece is totally flat now because it was ripped down to accomodate the 3 inch space and does not have a groove on the end anymore. Please keep this in mind as I mention to you that you can probably tap a flat piece of wood strip down along the right side of the last piece placed and perhaps another flat piece of wood strip down along the left side of the first piece placed. I didn't even ask if the T & G was diagonal at a 48 inch height with chair rail, or if it is diagonal from cieling to base, or if its straight to 48 inches with chair rail. There is a lot to be looked at here..as I said; this is not a job for the novice.
Please study How To Videos and you will see the involvement and perhaps you may even see the best way to remedy your situation.
