Our biggest crises can be triggered by the smallest things.

Triggers are the catalysts that drive our needs/desires to have sex. Most often, the trigger involves some kind of “painkiller” such as emotional or psychological discomfort (stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, shame, boredom, anger, etc.). Positive emotions can also be a trigger. So, if we get laid off, we want to show it, and when we get a great new job, we want to show it. Triggers can also be visual (seeing sexy images on billboards), auditory (hearing sounds that remind us of sexual activity), olfactory (smelling a past partner’s perfume), or even touch or taste related .
