A problem I note in the questions is that the majority seem to be [self-help questions](https://cogsci.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/502/why-was-my-self-help-question-closed-as-off-topic), which are a particularly dangerous breed of question:

 - They act, implicitly, as medical advice. That alone is a legal nightmare and Cognitive Sciences doesn't allow them for that reason. Questions are expected to be about general research into specific matters, now "how can I apply this to my personal situation", which is localized and possibly dangerous. I'm particularly concerned about the apparent self-help questions about clinical depression, many of which seem to implicitly or explicitly be about avoiding medically prescribed drugs. That can literally kill people or cause them to commit suicide.
 - Cognitive Sciences pretty much covers all expert, non self-help aspects of this proposal.

A site for non-experts would certainly be different from Cognitive Sciences, but I don't believe it would be a good Stack Exchange site. Sharing experiences, insight and support is not what Stack Exchange is about; it's about good answers to solid questions.

I'd generally suggest that this proposal be closed this as a duplicate of [Cognitive Sciences](http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/2149/cognitive-sciences), a Beta site, but from the existing questions the topics I don't feel they'd be welcome (without significant reworking) on Cognitive Sciences, or on Stack Exchange in general.
