More than half of our friends are also residents that we've met while DH was in undergrad pre-med, medical school and then residency programs. The rest sort of get it and are somewhat supportive but as all of you aware nobody who doesn't have some sort of contact with our world will ever completely understand.
I think what helped me most is being in a younger social circle and not having any kids. We are slowly drifting away from some of our non-medical friends now but only because they're jumping on the kids bandwagon a lot sooner than those still in residency.
