Addictive Withdrawal and Buddhism It's well documented in psychology that the cessation of any type of addictive behaviour causes a period of withdrawal. During this period, less pleasure is experienced overall as well as mental difficulties.

Does Buddhist have any advice about such periods and way to help the recovery process?
Sure, the way to have clarity of perception is with sati sampajana and the way to have pleasure is to go beyond sati sampajana, ie, with samadhi. nobody can have ''withdrawal'' without being ''happy''. happiness stems form withdrawal and clarity of perception.

So it is  minduflness and turning minduflness into samadhi, as usual, like so 


  Whomsoever it may be, Ananda, bhikkhu or bhikkhunī, living, having got
  by heart the four settings-up of memory — of such a progressively more
  excellently refined self-awareness is to be expected."
  
  Of what do these four consist?
  
  Here Ananda, a beggar living in body oversees body ardent, self-aware,
  recollected, disciplining worldly covetousness and depression.
  
  In such a one, living in body overseeing body, promted by body or
  arising from body, passions[3] of the heart or sluggish externals
  destract the heart.
  
  Then, Ananda, that beggar should set his heart on the track of some
  happy state.
  
  In the heart set on the track of some happy state joy is born.
  
  With enjoyment entheusiasm is born.
  
  Entheusiastic in mind the body becomes impassive.
  
  Impassive in body happiness is experienced.
  
  Happy at heart one is serene.
  
  He then determines:
  
  'Such as was the attainment of heart to which I aspired, such
  attaiment has been produced in me.
  
  In that case, it is now time to withdraw!'
  
  And thus he withdraws and does not think and does not ponder.
  
  Understanding:
  
  'Without thinking, without pondering, internally recollected, I am
  happy.'
