Why does my ActionListener keep repeating?

I made a JButton and added an "AddActionListener" to it, but it keeps repeating the same action several times (2-6 times each time I press the button).

I'm sure I'll find it eventually, but can you see anything in this code that would show why it's repeating?

It shouldn't be possible for any of the methods it calls to make the action repeat. Also, I can call those methods from other places, and it's okay.

EDITED: Here is the whole code for the problem class:
