Audio Automation "Touch" does whatever it wants.

So I start a project up. I set the audio channels to off. They will turn themselves back to "touch" and as I play with my 30 band EQ as the video plays, next time I play that section the entirety of all faders in the EQ are either maxed or switched around in random places I DID NOT set them to. 

Can anybody tell me why is my audio automation deciding to turn itself on even after I make a point to turn those channels off from the get go?

I'm now realizing that I will set them to off, Click out of premiere for whatever reason, then come back and they're set to touch again. 

Is there a way to turn this audio automation off entirely!?
