Supplementation for detoxing from alcoholism?

I drink a 26er every evening.. Been doing so for a long time. I have been experiencing skin irritation in my hips, back and man boobs for the last 6 months(which I am assuming is a liver problem)... I am planning on stopping entirely but would like to know on the best way to detox from alcoholism as far as supplements to take....

I read that Milk Thistle is good for the liver, but I also read about the side effects of Milk Thistle, which can cause liver problems..... So which is it?

I am kinda confused on whether I should be taking detox supplements or not...

Update:

Will supplements help with detox when quitting alcohol is what I meant to ask.. I assumed that the readers of my question assumed that I am quitting entirely..

    Supplements won't detox anything. The only thing that will help is quitting.
