Xanax how to taper down

I have become addicted to Xanax and want to taper down.
Does anyone know how to properly taper off this drug in a manner that is safe.

Should I go sharp on the taper or cut just by very small amounts each week?

I am worried about telling my Psychiatrist because I am afrade he will cut me off completly. This is going to take a lot of will power because I love my little pills so much.

I don't know where the health pages are.
