Is It Covid or Just time to move on?

Hi guys. I wanted to get your opinion on something. I've been working in the finance industry for 5+ years, all of them with the same company. My role is as a High Net Worth sales rep, interacting with clients on the phone, performing mutual fund and brokerage transactions while also helping to generate business for various platforms.

Over the years, I have struggled to gain advancement in roles beyond the phone and even to higher paying versions of the role. Routinely there will be reps promoted ahead of me who sometimes don't meet any of the metrics we have in terms of sales or service levels and who have less tenure. Despite this, I have tried pushing forward, anticipating my time might come as I commit to doing the work. Throughout the years I've had periods of disengagement and restlessness that manage to course-correct at different points.

But this spring, with the coronavirus shutting down offices and resulting in distance work, in addition to the above experiences, I feel unbelievably unfocused and not committed to my work. I have been proactively scouring job boards to see if another role exists that would bring the emotional relief I crave. Adding to my woes are responsibilities of taking care of my family after losing my father in a house fire last summer and the stress of feeling deficient and anxious as a person due to lack of career advancement and life experiences at 30.

So I pose the question to you: Is this era of the pandemic bringing about accelerated mental stress that will pass and I'm being overly dramatic, or do I need a fresh start elsewhere?
