to answer your questions -

is there such a book - yes there is a book called the DSM. it is published and updated periodically through the American Psychiatric Association.

you can purchase the DSM 5TR through the American Psychiatric Association website ($170.00 american money), or Amazon. or if you want to read it for free go to your local library. you will find it in their reference department.

Does it say anything about withdrawal symptoms - yes there is a section called substance abuse/ substance use that covers withdrawal from medications and drugs.

Does it say anything about misdiagnosis - yes it does on various pages in various sections.
