Is there any way to check my total Social Security contributions ?

[polm]

I would like to know how much I have given, in total, to Social Security since I got my first job.

Can it be done ?

yep by taking ur paystubs and checking the totals at the end of each year 😉

or yeah you can also go here and request a stament: http://www.socialsecurity.gov/

Yes. You get all your W-2's (the copy that you're supposed to keep for 5 years or so), and add up the field that says "Social security".

Other than that, I doubt it, you could TRY calling the IRS and asking...

Not sure. I know they send me a "statement" every year showing what I've paid and how much I'll receive.

Drakkon beat me to it but here is a direct link.

I dont want to know how much I put it, it will just hurt that much more when I dont get it back.

Unless you're 45 or older now, you most likely will NEVER see a dime of that.
