If there are no children and the divorceis uncontested it takes 60 days in Michigan to get divorced.  That is after the papers are filed.  With children, 6 months.  Plus there are waiting periods. But you can get your own apartment without getting divorced.  Seek legal help as soon as you can to plan.  Good luck.
