I agree there is a difference between simple recognition of IT, and swearing back at IT. But I can't imagine where the idea came from that someone learning and using AVRT would have a goal of "never to simply recognize" the AV. When learning and using Addictive Voice Recognition Technique, one cannot help but fall into a pattern of simple recognition. It's happened to me without deliberate conscious intent on all three substances I made a Big Plan for.
Simple recognition is the condition of stable equilibrium that puts recovery behind me instead of struggling one day at a time with other sobriety seekers who clearly have a goal of "never to simply recognize" or even begin to separate the Beast of their addiction from themselves.
