You can collect social security disability, but not disability and social security. Now you can collect workman's comp disability and social security.

Assuming that you are talking about SS Disability, no you cannot. Once you become eligible for SS Retirement the SSD will stop.
Most other disability plans also stop once you become eligible for SS Retirement benefits, however that is up to the individual plan not the law as it is with SSD.

Is the disability payment coming from Social Security? or is it separate?

Yes. Disability is not reported on your tax return so has no bearing on SSI.
