My late mom, I know for a fact, would become manic from Amitriptyline and she loved it

I have this odd unsubstantiated belief that reactions to meds can also be hereditary, which is why I am so concerned. But on Thursday night, I HAD to take as a sleep aid because it is the only that works for sure (and I had been getting 4-5 hours of sleep at night and had to leave work citing a headache but in reality to take an unavoidable nap) and I HAD to function at work for a full day on Friday, I could not complain of headaches any more. It worked, it terms of functioning, very well, but now I am concerned about the manic tendencies. I did not take Trazodone yesterday and will see a pdoc on Monday...
