Nah not really. Get better at classical chess. Analyse those games and improvment in bullet and blitz will follow

Absolutely! Too much bullet is bad for you, since your time with bullet is not as well spent as longer time controls, don't fall for memes and think it is unvaluable.
A master has thousands of very simple tactics memorized. A GM doesn't have to calculate a mate in 2, because he or she simply recalls one of thousands of mate in 2's they have memorized.
If you missed a simple tactic, you should take the time to memorize it. Just replay it over and over again in your head, and on the board, until you do have it memorized. That is a valuable real world test. Both in recognizing when a tactic becomes available and applying the found tactic.
I wouldn't spend too much time playing bullet but I don't think it would hurt to analyze them. There's always something to learn from your mistakes and blunders!

I honestly wouldn't recommend playing bullet chess at your level. This isn't meant to be an insult. I simply feel that playing bullet can be more harmful than helpful, especially when one is still mastering the fundamentals of the game.
Ideally, I would say to stay away from bullet until one reaches around 2000 in playing strength.
No. Bullet game blunders are only made when you are in a rush and have to use premove 😀

Especially if you checkmated someone thinking it was a check,

Yeah so, I use a lot of premoves during bullet matches but for real, if your opponent did a lot of checkmates, please DO NOT use them, I only use them when I run out of time

most likely the reason you're hanging pieces in bullet is because your pattern recognition isn't high enough and bullet doesn't let you reflect "oh no, his queen actually guarded that square" or something like that.

Hi! My name is Lauren Goodkind and I’m a chess coach and chess book author based in California. My website is www.ChessByLauren.com
I don't think it's worth analyzing bullet games because you simply don't have time to properly think things each move. If you did properly think about every move, then you'd lose on time.
If you want to analyze games, then I recommend analyzing rapid and classical games. Bullet chess games is also about time. In other words, playing a decent chess game in bullet time control (with no increment) is very hard!

Chess is chess... you can learn from analysis no matter where the position came from... if you treat it like that then it's fine.
Although, obviously, bullet games aren't going to be a good source of positions worth putting a lot of time into, and because of the time control your thoughts going into the analysis are likely to be really superficial. When you analyze a position from a long tournament game there's a lot of... how to say it... mental history there. When you discover something is right or wrong in a position like that it can help you make consequential changes to your overall understanding.

Probably not for bullet. Analysis of quality ("quality" being the key word here) blitz might be useful, but bullet just seems too different. It seems like time would be better spent doing tactics, studying chess or even analyzing some of your longer time control games 
I hardly ever play bullet (I don't even play that much blitz for that matter), but I used to analyze them superficially out of habit. After years of analyzing practically EVERY game I've ever played - it becomes almost subconscious to review the game when done. I don't analyze bullet regularly though - at most I might check the analysis of a bullet game if:
-I wanted to investigate the opening and just checking the game to see how far into theory I went/where I deviated.
-I thought for sure my attack or mating net was decisive, but didn't find a clean way to convert; was there a missed win somewhere?
Other than that, I don't check bullet games anymore. Blitz (and especially bullet) is kind of my way to play chess without the stress of rating fluctuations or post-game analysis. Even if you are serious about your online ratings, I find it useful to have at least one time control or variant to not care about and "unwind" a bit. For me, that is the faster time controls and variants like live 960. It is what I play when I feel like playing chess but don't want to risk my rating or am tilting. xD
Better to play longer time control games and analyze those if you want quality worth analyzing. You shouldn't put too much emphasis on analysis if the entire game felt rushed
