“She Jumps On Beds. Climbs Sofas.
Spins In Circles. Sings Loudly.
From Sunrise To Sunset.
But The Moment We Say, ‘Let’s Sit And read A Book’ —
She’s Gone.”
Meher, 4 years old, was a firecracker.
- Running.
- Climbing.
- Dancing.
- Talking.
People said:
“She’s full of life!”
“She’s so smart, just hyper.”
“She’ll grow out of it.”
But her parents started seeing something else:
- She couldn’t focus on a task for more than 30 seconds.
- Couldn’t sit through a 2-minute conversation.
- Threw tantrums when asked to pause.
“She wasn’t full of energy.
She was losing control inside it.”
🧠 Why Movement ≠ Focus
At Pinnacle® Ahmedabad, neurodevelopmental therapists explain:
“Children on the autism spectrum or with attention regulation disorders often appear hyper —
but their core issue is not excess energy, it’s inability to regulate focus and calm.”
Key signs:
- Constant activity without task completion
- Jumping or flapping when asked to wait
- Meltdowns during transitions from play to seated tasks
- Interrupting, climbing, switching constantly
- Deep concentration only during screen time or movement play
“They’re not wild.
They’re wired differently — and they need help anchoring.”
📞 The Moment They Knew It Wasn’t Just “High Energy”
At preschool:
- The teacher asked Meher to sit for storytime.
- She jumped up. Ran to the wall. Spun in circles.
- When called back — she screamed.
That day, her teacher gently said:
“She’s not being naughty.
She’s struggling.”
Her parents called 9100 181 181 that evening.
The counselor said:
“Let’s screen what’s happening inside her attention system.
Let’s build regulation before we misunderstand.”
They booked a free AbilityScore©® Attention Screening the next day.

- Physical Activity Drive: 🟢 Green (940/1000)

She wasn’t out of control.
She was trapped in a brain that couldn’t pause.
🤖 How TherapeuticAI©® Helped Her Anchor, Focus, and Flourish
Meher’s plan included:
- Movement-before-focus routines
- Timed attention stretches with gradual build-up
- Visual task boards for clarity and closure
- Deep pressure OT for calm before seated tasks
- “Stop → Breathe → Start” self-regulation cycles
By week 5:
- She sat through a 4-minute book session
- Played board games with minimal prompts
- Whispered, “I’ll finish first.” — and did.
“She didn’t need to slow down.
She needed to learn when to pause — and how.”
💬 What Her parents Say Now
“We were told she was spirited.
But beneath the energy was a child desperate to land — if only she knew how.
Pinnacle® gave her wings — and brakes.”
