Divorce is a legal arrange whereby both parties agree to ending a formal relationship such as marriage however, it usually also specifies who gets what property, monies, accounts, who does pay child support, alimony if any. So no, you do not have to sign if you do not want to. Why not have an attorney look at the divorce documents and let him / her give you their opionion.
Why does he want a divorce? He must have been to an attorney already, since he has papers. You need an attorney - do not, do not, sign papers until your attorney has read them. You could be signing away any claims as far as you know. Do not do this until you have legal counsel.

A divorce can be granted to one party without the consent of the other. As far as signing anything, you need to get your own attorney to protect your interests and tell you what you should or shouldn't sign.

That is his right; you can agree or contest his request; if you contest, it could get expensive.
"Do have to go through with it?"
If and when he files his petition for divorce, he is suing you. You have an obligation to yourself to look after your legal interests because no one else is going to do that. If you feel unable to participate for some reason, see your doctor. Have your doctor contact your lawyer.
"He wants me to sign papers." As others have said, do not sign anything you do not understand. For the vast majority of folks, a competent lawyer is needed.
Yes, a divorce can be issued without the participation of one of the parties. In cases that I have known of, one side did not respond to any notice, and did not show up in court, so the judge found in favor of the person requesting the divorce and granted it. The judge was also favorable to all request made by the party who was present since no one was there to object. It was taken as a sign that the missing party had no objections.
