Basically I feel like I could have been much much more successful and have bigger influence on my friends, family and society if I didn't have this stutter. ​ That's not a fair statement to make if I am being frank. We can't as people play these what ifs, and as a fellow anxiety sufferer, I know those lanes seem easy but they aren't helpful. We sound similar in a sense as the anxiety causes the ball to roll on the stuttering and then it just loops and loops. With that said though, you seem to have a handle on this, and where the struggles come from, that is powerful. You have gotten this far.
