Most Explorers who write me have had bouts of depression and, to a lesser extent, anxiety or panic attacks. Many simply trudged through such experiences and eventually felt better, while others found professional help. Many Explorers visiting this site also have children who were diagnosed with ADD, which is how they found out about ADD in the first place. Late nights on the internet are not uncommon for Explorers. Then again, a few say they are early birds.
Explorers seem to be very spiritual, in both traditional and more creative ways.
More than a few say that a strong belief in God has sustained them through the years. Others are not religious per se, but are still very spiritual. Regardless of religion or lack thereof, Explorers believe in a greater good, are idealistic, future oriented and are deeply moved by other's experiences. Many describe themselves as people who fight for what they believe in. There's that memory thing, too.
