Poe: A Psycotic Person?

Dear English answer man
In your blog, you asked if we can judge an author in what s/he writes. I belive that you can not judge someone on what they write. Look at poe. His psycotic stories were from his cretive imagination caused from the drinking and the loss of loved ones (mostly drinking). he was not psychotic person, or else he would be in an asylum. instead he was a man with an unlucky past (and a drunkard).
Also, many mystery authors write stories with detailed murders, robberies and other crimes, but does that make them criminals? no, it just that they make a great story from their creativity. Thus, it proves that the types of stories a writer creates does not make them that type of person.
