what have you done for me lately?

Really struggling with the job today. More to the point, I've worked diligently and strategically to train my team well, re-build the department after I was so casually fucked over last holiday season, and I've also delivered on some big group projects during that time working across teams.
Since late 2022, it's felt like I'm just rebuilding the treadmill I'm running on, and getting flak for my smile faltering.
This is the longest I've ever been at a job, and the least-underemployed I've ever been, but I think it's time to part ways. There is no career trajectory where I'm at, and what I do have control over is built on sand. With the adhd managed I'm no longer content to "work as hard as I can" and yet have no tangible accomplishment or growth to show for it.
I told myself in January that I wouldn't make any decisions in the depths of winter depression, but now that it is June this is not only a feeling, but an assessment and a warning from me to me: I need to walk away, on purpose, to something new.
Open for any job-search tips anyone might have to share with a mid-level manager easing back into the job market - or if anyone is handy with resumes, since I'm updating mine after a decade...
