How long for Clonazepam withdrawal to kick in at 1 mg twice a week

I've posted this before sorry guys. Just wanted some clarification.

I've usually taken 1 mg of Clonazepam once or twice a week.

But I've been taken it 1 mg twice a week steady for 4 weeks.

And the week before last week I took it three times a week.

I took 1 mg on Saturday night. I am just wondering when I expect any withdrawal to happen if it will.

Again sorry for bringing this up multiple times!
 
It's impossible to say, though if you're using it only 2-3 times a week, withdrawals are unlikely. Of course, doing this for any sustained amount of time will result in some sort of discontinuation side effects, in part due to the really long half life. So even if you don't go through withdrawals per se, you could still end up having problems with sleep and anxiety if you've been using it for a long time (even sparsely) and then suddenly stop.

What are you using the clonaz for?

I've been on Clonazepam for years. Usually only at once a week. The last six months have been stressful so I've upped the dosage to twice a week. I took my last dose Saturday night. I'm on it mainly for anxiety.

I don't even know if it's possible to WD even slightly at this usage level / frequency. You'll be fine. If somehow you do feel a bit rough, get some exercise and eat well (if you're not already).
