Legal Question in Family Law in Ohio

marriage leading to divorce

What are my rights as a concerned mother who has been in a marriage involving mental and emotional trauma or abuse? I am seriously considering leaving but I do not want to be charged with any abandonment issues since I am looking out for my own health and wellbeing which is declining at a rapid pace.
