Episode 2-5 won't show up
So I decided to get the Free 1st Episode on Steam and I played through it. I liked the game, so I decided to get the other Episodes. As I walked through a market, I discovered a Life Is Strange Game. I bought it for 10€ and as I arrived at home, I tried to install it. It wanted me to install the game through Steam, so I installed it. But when I opened my game, the other episodes were'nt there. It still says that I have to buy it, but I already bought it ._. Can someone help me?

Sorry for my bad english, no native speaker here

couple of things to try out.

go to your steam games library and highlight 'life is strange' and the box where the dlc's are located thats where episodes 2-5 should be if they are there make sure the tic boxes are checked 'if they are already selected some times unselecting them and re selecting will help' and failing that right click on life is strange go to properties and look for the tab 'verify integrity if game cache' this should fix a broken installation.

if they dlc are not shown then they might not be activated. to do this go to the menu bar at the top of steam and select 'activate new product' and from there enter the serial number you recieved when you purchaced the game.

No, there is no DLC Box where DLCs are normally shown

just searched google and i think the reason Day Walker asked if it was a physical copy was that i dont think you can add a cd expansion onto a steam owned game!
will have to do more research but i have a feeling you will have to buy episode 1 cd or refund the cd you have bought already and buy the episodes through steam

I think if you had removed the free license and then redeemed the key code it would have worked

I already tried that, but when I install it through the CD, I only get the Free 1st Episode again.

Sorry perhaps this a dumb question but did you activate CD key on steam? One friend had this problem - he had CD version and did not activate CD key, so thats why I suggest this.

Check the stickied post at the top of the forum titled "Unable to Add to Library / Family Sharing Issue *RESOLVED*" as that issue is very similar to the issues you are having when episodes 2-5 don't show as being installed to Steam. There is a fix posted in that thread with a video showing you exactly how to fix it...hope this helps! :)
