No longer registered as a doctor

I have voluntarily erased myself from the GMC register (see my GMC entry). As I said in a previous post, when I first qualified I thought I would be able to practise medicine for life. Not sure, anyway, I can now listen easily enough to patients, which psychiatrists should be able to do, with my current level of senile deafness, even with hearing aids! I seem to have finally accepted I am fully retired, in the sense that I do not intend to return to paid work, having flirted with the idea of going back part-time, even re-acquiring my licence to practice last year but not being able to find any such work.
