Divorce lawyer at The Law Office of Zoe Meigs, P.C.
You may certainly file for divorce.  Once you file, there is a 60 day waiting period before you may finalize the divorce.  You may either hire an attorney to represent you in the case or you may try to do it yourself using forms that you find online or elsewhere. Grounds for divorce may be "insupportability" which means that you are not able to get along in a marriage. There are very restrictive and limited grounds for annulment, but perhaps you meet them.  1. Under age 18. 2. Under the influence at marriage ceremony. 3.  Impotency of spouse. 4.  Fraud, duress or force. 5.  Mental incapacity. 6.  Concealed divorce. 7. Marriage less than 72 hours after license issued. For each of these, once you discovered the problem you must no longer cohabit with the spouse. Divorce divides any property accumulated during the marriage or confirms that each spouse's property in his or her possession is her separate property.  Annulment only treats the marriage as never existing and no property is divided or confirmed.

Would I receive spousal support payments based on my history of a stay at home mom and the length of our marriage?

You may be a good candidate for post-divorce spousal maintenance, depending on your prospects and your husband's income. You'll certainly get an award of child support for your 13 year-old. You need a lawyer; please see one.

Can retirement earned prior to marriage be taken in divorce since I paid 3 out of 33 years to social security while married?

Social Security is governed by federal law and will not be divided in a divorce. Private retirement funds can be divided but what was acquired prior to marriage is separate property. I suggest you hire a lawyer.
