You cannot "force" someone to get help. If you believe there has been a breakdown in the marital relationship to the extent the bonds of matrimony have been destroyed and the marriage cannot be preserved, you can file for divorce. Michigan is a no fault state BUT fault may come into play as it relates to the distribution of property.
