If you have been in a treatment program and entered a halfway house as a step to reintegrate in agreement of your recovery it would be called leaving against advisement. You have agreed to the halfway house by agreement and are demonstrating an inability to complete your agreement.

The structure is set up for you to utilize the community for support. And you can discuss any "feelings" or thoughts with your group. Sometimes just talking about your fears will help you work through issues.

The idea of the support of a halfway house is to help you in your efforts to find suitable employment. By that I mean, work where you have a good chance of success. You will also have letters of recommendation for employment, obtaining housing, or bank loans, and a sense of self-esteem after completing your commitment.

Trust the process. Close your eyes, if you need to but get through it.

I have heard that this is not escape, because technically you have been released from custody.
We cannot answer this question without more facts. It would appear that there is either parole or probation involved as opposed to some sort of rehab to which you referred. The results of being "violated" can be severe and the parolee cannot simply walk away without consequences.
