Legal Question in Employment Law in New York

can I sue a company because of stress?

I had a nervous break down because of the abuse (I think) pressure from my superiors. Right now I am on Psychiatry treatment.They will give me dissability but, I think it is not enough. I want them to pay for what they did to me. I can't get it off my mind, I have a stress disorder. I was in the hospital for a week.

If your psychiatrist says that the stress and breakdown are related to the on the job treatment you may have a case.
