Overall, Edgar had a most depressing childhood (such as his mother's passing, him moving in with his disciplinary father, and the death of his young wife). He spent his time writing poetry (and other writing works). But most say that he spent his time drunk and gambling. He eventually died in 1849, but his most cherished works live on.
Poe lived in England for a time.
Allegedly Poe was upset because John Allan was having affairs with other women in his house when his wife (Poe's foster mother) Frances Allan was sick. On the other hand, John Allan disapproved of Poe's gambling and drinking. Both had their issues with the other.
