If the release of dopamine and serotonin is what makes us spontaneously happy, what causes us to feel spontaneously bad ?

We all know by now that the reward system releases dopamine and serotonin to make us feel good, for example when being complimented, seeing a cute animal, eating something very tasty or whatever.

But what happens in our brain when we see something that ‘makes your heart sink’ and makes you feel instantly bad?

A mix of suddenly lowered “happy hormones” and increased stress hormones like adrenalin, noradrenalin and cortisol
