Dr. Powell is no stranger to the rollercoaster ride of multiple diagnosis. When he was 10 years old his doctor prescribe valium to curb his hyperactivity. By the time he was 16 his doctors had changed his diagnosis and prescribe lithium. At the age of 19 when all else failed the doctors once again change his diagnosis and placed him on Ritalin. As the years progressed the doctors eventually gave up trying to figure out what was wrong with him. Fortunately Dr. Powell never gave up on himself.

Dr. Powell early on knew that there was more to the story than a diagnosis or a pharmaceutical medication to cure his ailments. He also knew there had to be answers to why he had challenges with focusing, impulsivity, hyperactivity and so on. School teachers would constantly tell him how intelligent he was and if he could just settle down and focus on his work he could become anything he choose to. But every time Dr. Powell would ask them how he could accomplish this task no one could give him any direction. It was for that reason that Dr. Powell decide at the age of 12 to begin a life long journey in search of the answers to the questions that he posed to others. By his 13th birthday Dr. Powell had successfully learned self-hypnosis to help him in calming him from the hyperactivity.
