I'm 42 yrs old I'm on ssd, it is not a lot
I worked another job for tens when I was younger , I will get a pension check but not until I'm 62 yrs old I need money now
Can I get that money now if so how

What or who is 'tens?'
Contact the company you worked for about getting the pension now. If the pension plan is administered by another company, ask them. Only they know the answer. If you have any paperwork, look in the fine print.
Personally I think you will be more sorry later if you collect it now. Try for senior housing now, because people on SSD can apply as well as seniors. You can get just about every benefit a senior does.

Normally no you can not get retirement pay before the time frame, but some companies have allowances for earlier payouts but it will be "a lot" less. If you start taking 20 years early what may be 1000 a month at 62years of age is likely to be maybe 200 dollars a month if that.
