Obsessive-compulsive disorder 

Also known as OCD, obsessive-compulsive disorder is a neurotic mental illness in which intrusive, negative thoughts and/or impulses which regularly enter the person's mind (obsessions) are counteracted by repetitive acts or rituals performed to alleviate the anxiety and general distress created by these obsessions. It is possible to qualify for a diagnosis of OCD if only obsessions or compulsions are present, although the vast majority have both.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder is much more than being quirky or a bit of a neat freak.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder by Proxy 

Where you feel compelled all of the time to make other people do things that you do not feel the need to do yourself. Their failure to do so makes you extremely uncomfortable.

Also, making a person do something over and over again because you think they probably did not do it right before.
