Edgar would be described as having "histrionic" personality disorder.


Histrionic personality disorder (HPD) is characterized by the American Psychiatric Association as an identity issue portrayed by an example of unreasonable consideration looking for feelings, typically starting in early adulthood, including improperly alluring conduct and an intemperate requirement for endorsement.
