Why would you want too? If it's too hard for you to make it to the end try lowering the difficulty, or change your playstyle.

Well, I completed the game on another computer a few times. I want to get back to where I was skipping the game would be better than playing it again.

The most you can skip is you can go straight out of the vault and go rescue Valentine

If you have Steam cloud sync, you should have all your old saves still.

Otherwise, there are ways to skip quests via the console, but it might be tedious skipping the entire story worth.

That said, the game doesn't force you to play the story to progress, and it doesn't end at the end of the story.

Why not just ignore the story entirely, and do main quests intermittently whenever you feel like it?

I've got OCD and it just doesn't feel right leaving it like that. If I had the time I would do the game from the start but I don't.

The only way to skip is using console commands, and honestly your probably going to screw up your new game doing that, so I wouldn't bother.

I guess, Maybe I could just find a mod for it.

If you have Steam Cloud Sync enabled (look at your games properties in Steam Library) than all your previous saves should be there.

I don't really remember my account details on that account, I shared it with a friend at the time and that was about a year ago.

I mean, I can see that to an extent, but like I said, the story will always be there to come back to at any point - the game is open ended and doesn't actually have a defined end point anyway.

If it makes your story-based OCD better, you could use a mod like Alternate Start or (my preference) Start Me Up - both change the story startup (IMO the attention to detail in the dialog changes make Start Me Up the superior choice) and modify the entire game to effectively change who you are and not railroad (pun intended) you through the game.

Alternate start?

If you search your emails you can find the details for your previous account and recover the saves that way. If your friend had the account then have them do this for you.
