Sexual feelings are the trigger. The cravings are usually about wanting to hold someone. Being intimate emotionally and physically. Wanting to be wanted. Or that is how I experience them.
They start and then I do things like make dinner or watch TV, and they persist. This goes on for a few hours. If I am lucky, I fall asleep. If not I am kept awake.
I had the same thing, all it was was loneliness, meetings help that as well, this is what they mean by "cunning, baffling and powerful"
your loneliness manifests as "horniness" which manifests as craving, and viola you are using in order not to feel lonely when you never really realized being lonely was the problem in the first place
