Answer 2

Steve has obsessive-compulsive personality disorder.
Obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, also known as OCD, is a disorder characterized by particular obsessions with something - some people feel the need to wash their hands all the time, some feel anxious all day at work worrying if they've locked the door (even though they have checked many times), but all of them are very anxious to the point where they cannot lead their normal lives.
