Yes, but you are taking less Xanax than what would be equivalent to the Ativan you were taking. You are probably experiencing withdrawal effects. They should pass, though. Even if you were to take 1.5 mg of Xanax, you might still experience a period of adjustment with withdrawal-like symptoms.

If you remain unhappy with what you are experiencing, you should probably contact your doctor.
