You need to enter into an LLC Membership Interest Transfer Agreement that conveys your units of interest back to the other members. Just keep all the housekeeping stuff in mind (e.g., bank account, EIN (if your social security number supported it), outstanding contracts, assets, debts, creditors, promissory obligations, etc.).
If you would like to discuss further over a free phone consult, feel free to contact me anytime that is convenient.
Our firm is now referred by the American Bar Association (see under the New York section):

Generally speaking, an LLC member cannot withdraw unilaterally from an LLC. Under some circumstances if the operating agreement of the LLC permits it then it can be done. Otherwise you world need to enter into a membership purchase agreement with the other members of the LLC
If everyone agrees, this should not be a complicated or costly matter.
