Answer 1

Steve is engaging himself in "avoidant" coping.

In psychology, avoidant coping is a maladaptive way of dealing with stress described by the push to abstain from managing a stressor. Coping alludes to practices that endeavor to shield oneself from mental harm.

Avoidant coping makes pressure and uneasiness, and desolates self-assurance. It's is a central point that separates individuals who have normal mental issues (e.g., sorrow, uneasiness, or potentially dietary problems).
