I do have a wonderful best friend who is an RN, and can understand and sympethize, but I find dwelling on it makes my anxiety worse. How does everyone deal with the doubters?

IMHO to deal with doubters is don't. Don't give into the frustration of not being understood. Just find solice in being litened to.
We all love being understood when it comes to relating our struggles and shortcomings to others but I feel we do ourselves an unjustice expecting to be understood.
Best thing to do is just forget about it.
I'm not advocating to ignore problems. But using a simple way of not letting frustration get the best of us.
Remember the road runs both ways so lend an ear too...
