They won't. If there were any withdrawal it would have happened immediately

Hello, greetings to you. Firstly congratulations on being able to taper the Clonazepam, without any additional supportive help.
Ideally if you have to get the withdrawals should be in 3weeks time.
The testing time will be, when you are stressed, anxious or sleepless next time, and ru able to cope!
You need a curative treatment than a palliative one.

Unlikely that you’ll develop withdrawal symptoms as you have gradually tapered the dosages

For such a low dose it is highly unlikely you will experience any withdrawal affects. If any resurfacing of previous symptoms you can reach out to me via practo platform for further management
