PTSD can screw up all your brain chemistry. Including Dopamine.

From Wiki:

Dopamine levels in patients with PTSD can help contribute to the symptoms associated. Low levels of dopamine can contribute to anhedonia, apathy, impaired attention, and motor deficits. Increased levels of dopamine can cause psychosis, agitation, and restlessness.^[18]

Of course, many other things can do likewise.
