Dopamine and other neurotransmitters

When I had a whole load of toxicity tests 2 or 3 yrs back I also had neurotransmitter tests. My dopamine levels were high but other neuro transmitters low. I was on a web call with the holistic practitioner running these tests and got to ask why I had this pattern. Without knowing me she said one word -Trauma. I was so stunned I failed to ask anything further. However regardless of the cause it seems to me that dealing with my ADHD symptoms is less a matter of getting dopamine up than getting other neurotransmitters in balance. I am wondering if this is one of the reasons I hate relaxation, pleasure or achievement, it overloads my dopamine system. Does anyone have any comments about this?
