I_am_A,
Keep in mind that recognition allways follows an incident of Beast activity. This means that AVRT is passive, and does not require defensive manuevering. You can think of AVRT as a Chess game, where the Beast plays white, and makes the first move.
You play black, but instead of countering with another move, you simply pull the game board out from under the Beast, and refuse to play. Of course, the Beast will go back and set the game board up again, hoping that you'll play at a later time.
What you are experiencing is not uncommon. The Beast has taken a beating from your Big Plan and your subsequent refusals to play the game. You can bet that It is busy setting up the chess pieces again, though, so to speak. If you want though, you can play dirty and attack your Beast while it's down.
Pull up some YouTube videos of movie scenes where someone is having a blast getting high on your favorite stuff. The Beast probably won't be able to resist getting excited and piping up. When it does, switch into your right mind, re-affirm your Big Plan, drive the Beast into the ground, kick it in the ribs, and stomp on its head with both feet.
