Dean had completely justified misery, but the way he talks about it I just want to smack him and tell him to Deal.
I think it's less that Dean talks about it so much and more that only Dean talks about his problems. The most recent emotional scenes have all been centered around Dean. And like you said, Dean's life sucks - god, does it - and he has lost so much and paid such a huge price for the path his life has taken. But when the show barely acknowledges Sam's issues - or makes them all about Dean and how they hurt Dean - then we get tired of hearing about Dean. A little balance would do so much good, writers.
I'm not sure that I believed him.
I'm not sure what the show is trying to say here. Sam can't feel anything (it does seem to fit) but some of his reactions are . . . well, not full of emotion, but there is emotion behind them.
