Suggest Ways To Wean Off Lorazepam

How can I effectively remove myself from Lorazepam 1MG three times a day. I have been taking this medication for quite a while and each time I cut back on the medication, I become very nervous and anxious. I am experiencing OCD along with depression. I would like some suggestions, since I feel this drug may also be contributing to my anxiety
