Legal Question in Family Law in Delaware

I removed myself from my home 6 months ago because of abuse from my husband. He's staying at the home we both own and have been paying mortgage for 20 years. He has been very manipulating when it comes to paying the mortgage and wants to play mind games with me saying he will leave and then the mortgage could default because I can't pay rent and a mortgage. With all the stress I'm going through it's very hard for me to concentrate and get a clear vision of how to go about ending all that's connected between us. He is an alcoholic and I quit 2 years ago and he is causing me to not be able to take care of myself because I worry that he is going to be stupid and let the house go even though we both benefit from selling it. In the meantime is there any thing I can do to legally have him be responsible for paying until the house is sold since his abuse forced me to leave my home and I don't want to lose all that was invested for 20 years? I am trying my best to quickly figure the best solution for the both of us but his thinking is not rational due to the alcoholism.
