Due sick pay that hasn’t been processed for 3 months, am I in the right for feeling like this?

I work as a delivery driver for a supermarket (UK) and the pay is already the worst amongst the competitors. I've stayed there because I enjoy the schedule as its set days every week, but at the end of November and start of December I had 2 weeks off with my mental health.

I assumed this month was finally when I would be paid as I gave them everything they asked for. I suffer with anxiety so ringing up and complaining is terrifying to me, but this situation has got me so worked up because Im due half my wages and I just keep getting told different things. I'm tempted to refuse to work until its been sorted, but I have 2 kids to provide for and I don't want to mess us up with money or lose my job. I could get another job quite easily but the other stores usually offer very little hours. But I feel like an absolute idiot if I just keep working after being made a fool. What would you guys do?
