It's been a while since I watched Supernatural, so don't take my opinions as gospel or anything. But I think Dean is self-hating to the point of narcissism in some ways. Don't get me wrong, I empathise with Dean and understand why fans largely do too. But his self-loathing warps his perception and becomes the centre of EVERYTHING and at times that really has ripple effects on those around him - particularly Sam.

Take their childhood, Sam has a right to mourn the fact that he didn't get a normal childhood. He's allowed to be angry that he didn't get a home, a present father, a stable community, and consistent education. But whenever Sam attempts to express his complicated feelings about his childhood, Dean immediately interprets it as ' oh I was supposed to look out for you. Are you saying I failed? Are you confirming I'm worthless?' which grinds the conversation to a complete halt. Because of Dean's intense self-criticism, Sam can never really be 100% honest with him or ask for support with his own issues, especially regarding their childhood. As anything outside of 100% gratitude just becomes another stick for Dean to beat himself with, and the conversation is immediately derailed.

Not only does Deans self-hatred mean that Sam's expression of his own experiences are pretty consistently shut down. In some ways, I think Dean strips Sam of his autonomy - he's so self-loathing, he sees every decision Sam makes as being about/a reaction to him. A good example of this is Stanford. Rather than understanding Stanford for what it was, an attempt by Sam to carve out a better life from himself and escape hunting. Dean views it as betrayal or abandonment, some re-affirmation of his own belief that he's not worth caring about. Rather than understanding it's a rejection of hunting, he sees it as Sam rejecting him. To Dean, Sam isn't attempting to find a better life, he's punishing the family.

Overall, it's interesting that people largely and rightfully sympathise with Dean due to his self-hatred. However, I don't see as much discussion about how his self-hatred doesn't just hurt him, it hurts those he's close to, as it colours his interpretation of their every action. Dean's self-loathing is always the biggest thing in the room and that has consequences.

thinking about an evil little post-finale world (aka after dean’s death) where sam decides to take the now-human chuck on as his fucked up little self-destructive fixer upper project ala nick in season 14. chuck is human, and powerless, and abandoned the “chuck” persona a decade ago so he no longer has his house or his bank information or ID or a credit score or anything. he has nowhere to go. and sam is all alone in the bunker, with its empty rooms and echoing halls and so much hollow space it drives sam crazy. so he’s got space. he knows how to fake all the paperwork chuck will need to be a person. sam is so lonely and desperate and messed up and chuck shows up at the door, and god is asking him for forgiveness, and who cares if he really means it? sam “maybe i can fix god” winchester about to make the world’s worst decision under the guise of kindness and out of the desperation of loneliness. forgive him, he knows exactly what he’s doing. and there’s nobody left to tell him not to do it.
