More details to this question:
my ex husband is now permantly disabled and my daughter is now receiving social security payments since she is under 18, does this now mean the child support payments will be discontinued as my child support page shows a credit for the amount she recently received in social security and since the credit is now larger than the amount he would have owed in child support till she is 18 do I have to pay him back whatever is over his obligation?

You have the option of collecting child support or the SSDI payments that are based on the father's disability. As the disability is more, you would want that. You do not get both.
