What Causes Jittery Feeling And Insomnia While On Clonazepam?

My Dr . switched my meds from Clonazepam 0.5 mg to Lorazezapam 0.5mg because i was having shortness of breathe and having been checked out by my pcp it is believed i was having a severe panic attack. I ve been on Clonazepam for many years but suffering thr loss of my husband this past September has me spiraling in very bad panic attacks. question is , now that i m on Lorazaepam, i feel very jittery and can t sleep. She wants me to stay on it for a bit longer to have my body get accustomed to the drug. its not making me feel sedated at all. Is this normal?
