Yea the option is to either accept rehab or go to jail or prison. But rehab means you stay there, that’s how most rehabs work. They assume if you leave you are going to relapse

Right now rehabs are optional, which is why their success rates are garbage

Here’s the problem with being able to leave at will, based on talking to people who leave rehabs:

- You have all these people psychologically withdrawing from a drug, which makes them depressed, which makes them irritable and crabby. This causes drama

- you have people that aren’t used to having to follow rules. This causes drama

- cravings are most intense in the first few weeks to a month of sobriety

So either people don’t like the staff, or they don’t like the other residents, or they get a bad craving. And they bail. They can’t be allowed to bail, or the entire thing will probably not work, IMO
