Diazepam withdrawals (or lack there of)

Hi all,

So I've been taking Diazepam to keep my anxiety under control due to my severe OCD. I have not been taking it daily (maybe 2-3 times a week) and a maximum (rare) of 15mgs for about 6 months now. I have been getting a little more control on my OCD and haven't taken any since Thursday 8th April.

I'm not getting any withdrawal symptoms at all and I'm worried that I'm going to get a sudden shock of withdrawal symptoms after a little bit more time passes.

Should I be experiencing withdrawals by now? or do you think I might be OK given I haven't been taking it every day?
