With medical help: You should be under the care of a doctor who is knowledgeable about benzodiazepines like lorazepam. There are multiple ways to do it but they all involve either gradual stepwise reductions or changing to a longer acting agent and initiating a gradual taper with this different agent. It is better to talk with a doctor about it first to determine if it is even safe to do so to begin with.
