His OP says the kids are 6 and 3 and they are in daycare because the wife cannot handle their care.
Whose idea was it to put the younger one in daycare? I think I'd be depressed if my spouse decided I wasn't functioning well enough to take care of my own children. What does she do in bed all day? Is she sleeping at least or reading? Can she do anything productive like take a shower or fix herself lunch or do laundry?

Typically the advice is that you can't make an adult seek treatment or look after themselves and that you can't sacrifice yourself or your kid happiness in the hopes they will get better. Most people support divorce in this situation. I will link some of the other threads for you
So much for “for better, for worse...in sickness and in health”
Taking a vow for yourself is not the same as promising to drag two kids in formative stages through the unmitigated hell that is having a parent with un- or undertreated mental illness. Take a seat, troll.
