detaching with love

All,

I'm curious about detaching with love, and some of the precepts of al-anon. How do you let go? How do you keep the craziness from engulfing your life if you're not ready to leave yet? This is my problem with the AW. I don't have a good idea of how to let go and let god.

It's most likely because I'm a conflict avoider. I don't like dealing in screaming, yelling, or anger matches, which is always what occurs. I have severe problems getting my mind around the goofy crap that the alcoholic says or does. Since I can't understand why it happens, it scares me.

Any personal stories about how y'all managed this trick?
