I've been taking half of a Sertraline 25mg pill, but some of it kind of melted on the tip of my tongue. Now there's this tingling and numbness going on. Is this just going to go away on its own, or could it do any permanent damage?

I'm feeling really stuck with this porn addiction and it's taking a big toll on my time and energy. Lately, whenever I'm alone in my room at night, I can't help but watch porn until I fall asleep, and I end up masturbating. I've tried to control it myself, but it's just not working and it's affecting my productivity. Could you please offer some advice on how to overcome this?
