Email is Sending Twice - php

Question

I have a script that I'm running using phpmailer - it's supposed to send 2 emails - a verification email and a request email. for some reason it's sending the verification email twice. I've gone over the code 100 times and I can't figure out why. Relevant code is below - it's not nested in any loop or condition. the "code" is a get variable and "auth" is pulled from a database.
<?php
if ($code==$auth) {
$mailtitle="message 1";
$message="message text";
$mail = new PHPMailer();
$mail->IsSMTP();
$mail->Host = "mail.mysite.org";
$mail->From = "authorize#mysite.org";
$mail->FromName = "mysite";
$mail->AddAddress($dre);
$mail->SMTPAuth = "true";
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mail->Username = "authorize#mysite.org";
$mail->Password = "thepassword";
$mail->Port = "587";
$mail->Subject = $mailtitle;
$mail->Body = $message;
$mail->isHTML(true);
$mail->WordWrap = 180;
$mail->send();
$mailtitle="message 2 title";
$message="message text";
$mail1 = new PHPMailer();
$mail1->IsSMTP();
$mail1->Host = "mail.mysite.org";
$mail1->From = "authorize#mysite.org";
$mail1->FromName = "mysite";
$mail1->AddAddress('authorize#mysite.org');
foreach ($pea as $px) {
$mail1->addBCC($px);
}
foreach ($sea as $sx) {
$mail1->addBCC($sx);
}
$mail1->SMTPAuth = "true";
$mail1->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mail1->Username = "authorize#mysite.org";
$mail1->Password = "thepassword";
$mail1->Port = "587";
$mail1->Subject = $mailtitle;
$mail1->Body = $message;
$mail1->isHTML(true);
$mail1->WordWrap = 180;
$mail1->send();
}
?>```

You may disable the BCC by REMOVING the following
foreach ($pea as $px) {
$mail1->addBCC($px);
}
foreach ($sea as $sx) {
$mail1->addBCC($sx);
}
