I think you're speaking about hypochondria? People who suffer from this disease can be anything from constantly suffering from a little cold or actually electing to have unnecessary surgeries time and time again. From what I know, it's also a fairly controversial diagnosis and occasionally in more severe cases paired with Münchhausen Bi proxy disorder.

Can bad bacteria cause you to have mental problems?

I don't think you can get mental problems from bacteria. Unless it gets into your brain at birth, you don't have to worry about going insane because of harmful bacteria. The only think bad bacteria can do to you is make you sick. Not mentally sick.
