All right tossing this out as I was rolling it around my head a bit. S6 spoilers ahoy!
So, we know that Not!Sam was a ruthless hunter who did things Sam wouldn't approve, but not all of his memories are about what he did.
During the year he spent alone a hunt with Sampa went bad. Sampa had a plan to use him as a bait and kill their current baddie while it's distracted. Except the plan went awry and Not!Sam got stuck with the MOTW for days or weeks (up to the author) while it tortured him (again up to the author about how and how badly he is hurt etc...)
When Sam is brought back and he gets all of Not!Sams memories he is the one who has to deal with the trauma as Not!Sam never did. Maybe the baddie was never caught and it's gunning for Sam again. Cue hurt/vulnerable Sam and protective/awesome Dean.
All right, shutting up now as I am still working on my own fill for the last meme...
